THE PEN IS TRULY MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD

To be a paid journalist writing about prison life and the barriers of justice impacted individuals is one of the two pillars that Ryan Moser represents. The other pillar is that Ryan also has the lived experience of incarceration.  After 8 years in prison for a property crime due to his addiction, Ryan has emerged from behind the wall to use his lived experience and unique writing skills to advocate for all aspects of prison reform, including the needs of so many, post incarceration.  It was while incarcerated that Ryan attended a writing class with Exchange for Change, a prison writing program.  That program and its mentors led Ryan to his journalistic path and appearances on NPR’s All Things Considered, News Nation and CNN.  As Ryan himself says, “I’m fighting for social justice through the medium of writing for changes.”
