“Back to Somalia” by Glenn Bell is finally set to hit the big screen by producing its Hollywood Movie Screenplay

“Back to Somalia” by Glenn Bell is one step away from becoming a Hollywood blockbuster after the release of the book’s Hollywood movie script coverage and Hollywood movie treatment. Author Reputation Press offers a Hollywood Book-to-Screen Service to authors who want to see their work on the big screen.

A script is a blueprint for movies, short films, or television series, and it is your ticket to seeing your book come to life on the big screen. It is also being utilized as a guide by movie directors and producers in creating the film, as it includes the character’s actions, dialogue, and expressions.

Glenn Bell, like the main character Ethan Breaux in his new action novel, was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana. He grew up hunting in the woods of southwestern Louisiana as well as fishing in the lakes and rivers in the confines of Calcasieu Parrish. Glenn loves the spicy Cajun cuisine of his native state. The word is that he makes one of the South’s best, old fashioned Pecan pies. Glenn has not always been an author. In fact, most of his life has been spent as a pilot, flying helicopters and commercial jet transport airplanes. Just like his main character, nicknamed Cajun, he was a Warrant Officer. He has flown most U.S. Army helicopters. Glenn has experience as an Air Mission Commander.

“Back to Somalia” by Glenn Bell is an informative book that was recently displayed early this year during the largest book festival in the United States, the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB). In partnership with ARP, Glenn Bell held a successful book signing event. The festival began in 1996 and is held on the penultimate weekend of April, hosted by the University of Southern California. The mission of LATFOB is to feature vendors, authors, and publishers. Among the events are panel discussions, storytelling, and performances for children, as well as the Los Angeles Times book prize ceremony.

Mark Heisey of the US Review of Books highly praised this gripping narrative, stating that “Bell’s military adventure is a heist story at its heart. Having served as an Army helicopter pilot and air mission commander in real life, Bell fills his novel with his firsthand knowledge of the aircraft involved and the manner in which missions are conceived and executed. His writing is detailed and businesslike, and his sentences are clear. The protagonist speaks disparagingly of Muslims and Islam, which some might find offensive. There are also points where too much minute information is shared, but military enthusiasts will likely enjoy the additional particulars. The action scenes are engaging, feeling like a mix of The A-Team and Top Gun. Readers who are looking for an armed forces-inspired novel centered on mission planning and attack choppers will find all of that in this book.”

Author Glenn Bell was interviewed by Ric Bratton of the prestigious radio show “This Week in America.” The host of the show has a long history in the broadcast profession and anchors the daily segment, “Just So You Know,” which airs on over 40 radio stations across the country. His TV experience includes news reporting and anchoring, weather forecasting, and sports newscasts. The Ric Bratton Show was one of his longest-running and highest-rated local TV discussion shows in the country.
