About Philadelphia

Oh, and get this – in medieval times, some whores got taxed! Like, official “sin tax” shit – wild, right? Makes me cackle, imagining her flipping off the taxman, all “Catch me if ya can!” Total badass. I’m obsessed, honestly – that mix of danger and swagger. “There’s water if you want it,” she’d say, cool as Eve, tossing a wink. Me? I’d just spill it, clumsy as hell.

I'm Writing and I Can't Shut Up

A selection from Russo's tenderhearted collection of short stories, The Whore's Child. An ebook short. Look for Richard Russo's new book, Somebody's Fool.

The river, oh, the river! It winds near Old Mill Road, and yes, you can feel its pulse. When a client teases me ‘bout it, I just laugh and say “Oh, honey, it's just like life – wild and free, just like that film, bae!”
