As a child I was always surrounded by people whom most would call "questionable" company. My parents would ship me off to stay with my aunts in The Bronx, NY in order for me to be more street smart. What I did learn was how to steal from the corner bodega and how to lose my shirt playing poker with my aunt, all the while I had my ears open to what was going on around me. It was many years later that after so many people telling me that I should write a book about my childhood I finally sat down in front of the laptop. As I was writing I had an Idea for a script for a short story and bada beep bada boop! HOUSEWIFE was born. This is my first writing project ever and some of the story comes from true events. I have so much more to write and can totally make this a series because God knows we need a new twist on mob movies. My story does not portray the "typical" mafia story. Like I said.....a lot of what I wrote came from true events. I'll leave it up to you to decide what those were. I hope you enjoy reading it as much I did writing it. I am always interested in hearing from anyone who would like to finance the production of my story. trish.mata@hotmail.com
