Richie Salerno
In my young days back on the streets in Brooklyn, I never thought I could be a writer. My mind was always fixed on how to make a buck. Writing was for the guys in the news, and as for books, well, let’s just say I never had a thing for books. Now, playing horses and shooting craps, that was my game. The Made Men in the neighborhood never had to push me to it. Once I got horses up my nose there was no stopping me. Back then, the years I spent … [Read more...]
Richie Salerno Discusses Disrespect: “The Real Virus Eating Society”

Richie Salerno “I Learned Everything I Need To Know About The Lockdown In Solitary Confinement”
I’m an old guy now, but as a kid in Brooklyn I was, as my attorney once said, less than well-informed when it came to the nature of legal and illegal behavior. Nobody died because of me, but my work for the neighborhood mafia guys, who were people I simply knew as uncles, aunts, and friends of the family, often took me outside the law. Funny thing about stepping outside the law. People who do it usually stay there until they get caught. I … [Read more...]
