Hoggs II: Prison Journals (Paperback or Softback)

This sequel to HOGGS: PRISON JOURNALS delivers more true accounts of staff's daily lives and interactions with inmates in the State of California Department of Corrections.

These Journals offer a snapshot of the challenges of the job mixed with insight, humor, and the good and bad decisions of staff. Although the writing is bent to the jargon of the correctional environment, the lay person is continually educated in the processes used by staff to navigate the changing rules and regulations of the Department. While staff, current and retired may recognize certain details of incidents, institutions, and personnel, they soon realize that the literary license of the author allows the story to take on its own version of reality. For my HOGGS sisters and brothers; be safe.

The saga continues...

Terol McCullar spent his first 42 years, working dozens of jobs, gaining life experience, preparing for a career that brought him personal satisfaction as a California Correctional Officer and Sergeant Instructor known as T-Mac. The author has acquired an insight into the passions and obstacles that forms the basis for one's self-motivation. His own motivation has been molded having lived through the changes witnessed from the 1950's and 1960's to the present. The dichotomy of witnessing both good times and turmoil was tempered by the belief in self-efficacy. The author's passion for the law and teaching is commingled with his being a Singer/Songwriter. The author acknowledges the undying support of his wife Tricia, daughter Angela and a long list of great friends. Terol McCullar actively pursued his twenty-six-year career as a California Correctional Officer and Sergeant Instructor known as T-Mac. Having lived through the 1950s and 1960s and his passion for the law and teaching has helped mold his intrinsic belief in self-efficacy. His latent passion as an author has flourished into four published works: both HOGGS I and II and a novel S.I.C.Q. and its sequel; SOS. He looks forward to writing sequels of his offerings and developing into whatever comes next. The author yet acknowledges the undying support of his wife Tricia, daughters Angela and Marnie, and a growing list of great friends.
