Hi, I’m Erika! I’m 33, mixed race, and a native North Carolinian. I’m a Pisces. Music is a big part of my life—I listen to all kinds and often sing throughout the day. I have a playful personality, appreciate a good laugh, and consider myself an open book. Having someone to share stories with and look forward to hearing from would mean a lot to me.

I’ve been single for three years, and I’m hoping to find a pen pal friendship. It wouldn’t hurt my feelings if that friendship grew into something more! I’m looking for a real connection—someone to talk with, laugh with, and get to know.

Tell me about yourself! What kind of music do you enjoy, and what song can you never resist singing along to?

I don’t have outside support, so I’ll need a little help covering the cost of messages and letters. If you’d like to message me, please help fund my tablet messaging so I’m able to reply.

Here’s how we can connect:

Tablet messaging: Create an account through the myViaPath app. Select my current facility, NCCIW, and find me using my name and offender number. Follow the available messaging and deposit options to help cover our conversations.

Phone calls: Create an account at ConnectNetwork.com. Choose AdvancePay to fund calls to your phone number, or PIN Debit to add funds to my phone account.

Letters: You can send letters through TextBehind using my name, number, and facility. You can also mail them to:
