3Having spent twenty-four years of his life incarcerated-sixteen of which he served productively-Lalo has earned the right to write about this neglected issue, which he uniquely refers to as "managing time."

He decided to write about this issue not because he knows more about serving time than anyone else, but because he learned how to master the application of time management in a correctional setting by committing himself to doing it.
