Flight For Control The Movie

Today is my first day of class in Maui, and I'm getting ready to put Flight For Control into a movie. 

That doesn't mean Flight For Safety is being neglected. The managing editor at Jet Star Publishing read this 500 plus mega-beast sequel, and he said, "Are you sure this is 154,000 words? This was a fast read." I am editing and making it tighter. But we've decided that we're closer than we thought. 

Today it's about the visual. About movies. About creation. And my friend Alex Wood (who can be found on twitter@AviationCenter) created an incredible book trailer. Check out the video and then like, share and, and spread the word. 



If you work in the world of aviation, (or plan to) and want to be in the Flight For Control Movie, send an email to FlightForControlTheMovie@gmail.com  This is a holding tank for when we cast the movie. During the memorial scene, all the extras will be real airline people. During the union meeting the extras will be pilots.

Today is the first step to making making dreams come true.

What are you doing to make your dreams become a reality?

Enjoy the Journey!

    Did I tell you that I want to be an extra? I don't remember. But If I didn't, I'll send an e-mail! :D

    Oh Karlene... 500 pages doesn't seem too much for an awesome thriller. I would say go for it. But you are an editor, so I don't understand how is the process. But anyway, can't wait for it to come out!!

      Yes, that's a bit long, unless it's completely tight. It would take a fabulous author to have 500 essential words. Now the fun continues. Thanks again for the great trailer!

    This trailer is a masterpiece. Why? For many reasons I am biased because I do love this novel. Review 6 will be in a few days. Seventh and final reading for a very long while will be before March 7. I am planning on finishing the 7th time on march 7th.

    I love the effects. And more so it has my favorite quote of all time. Our words, actions, character, and destiny are our make up and what brings our essence into this world. Our raison d'être

    Most importantly this is something we believe in.

    To say I had chills trickling my spine when I saw is an understatement. Thank you Alex for this masterpiece and thank you Karlene for giving us this opportunity to be apart of this project.

    Jeremy.

    I just read both your books and they were great! I guess I was a little too late to see the movie trailer though.
