Yesterday was great -- I received flowers, and then I got a package from the UK publisher with a humongous congratulatory card signed by their team, plus a copy of the ForF galley in an airsickness bag.

Thank-you so much. Congratulations on the success of this book.
A wonderful intro to the book by Mr. King. He definitely sparks your interest in talking about flying. Great book so far. Great job to all involved.
...marvelous, just marvelous!.....
With the death of Burt Reynolds and James Dickey having a poem included in Flight or Fright, I went a'youtubin' and found these just for interest.
I highly recommend listening to the above videos with James Dickey. Absolutely fascinating. He talks about poetry, Deliverance, writing, writers, his time in the war.
I loved how he said his poetry career started during his service in the Air Force, writing love letters to girls back home.

About halfway thru the book and I have to say, Mr. King and Ms. Vincent have put together one helluva good collection of stories. Joe Hill’s story is outstanding. A very well put together collection. Kudos to Mr. King, Ms. Vincent, and all the contributing authors.
*Mr. Vincent, if you please!
Gotcha. Sorry about that sir.

Found out yesterday that the Publishers Weekly review of Flight or Fright was their fifth most read review of 2018, out of some 8000 published reviews. I think that's kinda cool! Behind us on that list were Michael Ondaatje and Reese Witherspoon.
