This is incredibly exciting !!! I am so happy for you. I love all your work and so happy that the courage and determination you write about will be told to a mainstream audience that doesn’t necessarily want to pick up a “survival” book.
This is so exciting! Your book was great. My grandfather is Capt. John Fitzgerald. Maybe my brother and I could get a part in the film
Good luck with everything!
This is really neat. I am Active Duty CG stationed in the Capt. John Fitzgerald building that Matt Fitzgerald above mentioned. You actually spoke with my commander (CDR Antonellis) today on the sidewalks of Boston and mentioned Disney picked up your book. Congratulations! I hope that we can be of assistance to you during filming.
