should i keep writing them even if they haven't written back?

Hi there, I have recently wrote an inmate and haven't received a response yet. I was just wondering, do you think that I should keep writing them? I would like to continue writing them but I don't want to bother them. What should I do? Thanks.

we know that the inmates love getting mail.

we know that the inmates love getting mail. if your inmate is new to the system, they might not be totally settled or maybe they are in their feelings at the moment. We would recommend that you continue writing if you are able.
