Interview with Emilio Corsetti, Author of 35 Miles From Shore: The Ditching and Rescue of ALM Flight 980 - Page 3

The pilot, Shields, reacts to the problem internally by remembering a past experience. He contemplates or reflects on his choices then finally makes his decision, which leads to the next action.

Do you have a website or blog where readers may learn more about you and your work?

Yes, I have an Official Website site for the book. The site contains a wealth of ancillary material related to the story including images, book trailer, newspaper articles, maps, diagrams, and more. There is also a media room and an upcoming events page.

I also have a blog, Everything Nonfiction. As the title suggests, the blog is dedicated to nonfiction books, films, and documentaries. It is also the blog spot for my book, 35 Miles From Shore. The beauty of this site is that it attracts people with varied interests all dealing with nonfiction. Those people, in turn, are exposed to my book, which hopefully will lead to interest in the book and possible sales.

My personal website is EmilioCorsetti.com. Among the things on this site is a personal story about my daughter Allison, who died at the age of six and a half weeks.

Do you have another book on the works? Would you like to tell readers about your current or future projects?

I wrote a screenplay adaptation of my book. The screenplay attracted the attention of an agent that represents screenwriters. That agent asked if I had anything else in the works. It just so happened that I had another idea for a screenplay that was just sitting on my computer. I had spent five years writing a novel that was never published. There were three storylines in the novel. One was very good; one was good, and the third storyline was less than good. I took the very good storyline and turned it into a screenplay.


Thanks for stopping by BC Magazine today. I wish you lots of success with your book!

    Mayra,

    Thanks for the post. I've enjoyed answering questions from all of the blog hosts, but I especially enjoyed this interview. Your questions covered topics that haven't been covered in previous interviews.

    I do have one correction. My blog is Everything Non Fiction. The link is correct in the post but the text is incorrect.

    Thanks again,
    Emilio
