Post 10

For my Post 10, I am going to  write a letter to the authors of Donnie Brasco, written by Richard Woodley and Joe Pistone. This contains spoilers, so stop reading in about 3 seconds. Besides that, I have a post coming next week that will be one of YOUR ideas, but I'll explain later. Now for that letter:


 Dear Authors,

It seems like only one of you did all the work. Joe Pistone was away from his family for 6 years and live a double life under a different name. He risked his life several times and was almost found out, which is basically death, several times. He met some of the most powerful Mafia bosses in the country, and exposed their schemes to the public. He also was brave enough to testify in court against most of these guys, and get most convicted. After that, he had to go into the Witness Protection Program for 3 years to keep the Mafia from killing him, until he could finally go by his real name without a Mafia hitman killing him. Richard Woodley co-authored a book. I hope to God that you aren't splitting the profits 50-50.

 So that was a 30-45 second vent about how dangerous it was for Joe Pistone while he was an undercover agent inside the Mafia for the FBI. I'm done with this book, so I need a new one. Please feel free to leave suggestions in the comments or tell me in class. Thanks for reading, and see you next week.
