JD Rutherford Author of Dear Mom, Dear Son

I co-authored a poetry book with my Mother called Dear Mom, Dear Son. She passed away right after we finished writing it. My second book is called; An Imprisoned Mind.  Dear Mom, Dear Son is about the experience a mother has with her incarcerated son. The poems are written like letters, and the commentary between each exchange expresses our feelings about the letters. An Imprisoned Mind describes how the world is like a giant prison where everyone is incarcerated by something. The book is self-help geared towards the currently and formally incarcerated, yet there is valuable self-mastery information in it to help anyone looking to gain greater emotional intelligence, assertiveness, and objective thinking.
