Blood in the Gallera (Jay Abello’s Documentary Film)

POSTING FOR ONE OF THE MOST PASSIONATE INDIE FILM/DOCUMENTARY FILM DIRECTORS I KNOW.

WE NEED YOUR HELP.

 

Hi! I am writing because I need your help.

This year is the start of the production of my dream documentary- BLOOD IN THE GALLERA. This film is about the world of cockfighting – from where it originated to how far it has gone, dating back from years before Christ, to it being a billion dollar industry banned in many states of America.

I’ve never been this excited and sure of a material. However, my team and I don’t have enough resources to finish the film. But, for as low as $20, you not only get an exciting gift from us, you also become a great part of turning this vision into a great documentary. Should you need more information and a peek into what my team and I have done so far, you may visit

COLD AMBITION (A Cover Reveal)

“It was my life-long dream to become a private eye. Little did I know that with my very first case, that dream would become a life-threatening nightmare…”

When Jordan James decided to embark on a career as a private investigator, she never could have imagined that a chance encounter would lead to her staring down the barrel of a gun on the roof’s edge of a high-rise building. As she begins to investigate her first case, the puzzling murder of a prominent businessman that has left Boston’s finest mystified for more than two decades, she finds herself suddenly immersed in a treacherous underworld brimming with betrayal, raw greed, and political subterfuge of international proportions. In the midst of this, she discovers she is falling for her mysterious client despite the hints of his dark past. Can this feisty Southern girl with a penchant for trouble solve this baffling case or is she doomed to become another tragic chapter in an international conspiracy?

“COLD AMBITION” coming Summer 2014 from Soul Mate Publishing!

Of Empty Seats: An Open Letter

Dear YOU,

Sometimes, I wish you’d just see how you make your life even more difficult than it should be. You complain about how cruel life has been to you, and how love hasn’t been given to you so freely in the past. And yet, you fail to realize you shut it out at the first step of its offering – that those who wish to give it to you would never dare, not anymore, because of what you believe. For you bask in the glory of your strength, having no space for feelings and having no time to consider what your heart dictates of your fate. That isn’t strength. That is weakness at its best.

Try and accept how people can be emotional and how the heart falters to build its own self. Try and accept that the world turns because the people in it find joy in never-ending whirlwinds. Try and accept that those who have hurt you may have hurt themselves more, and that those who love you now may be hurting an even greater deal because they can’t break through your walls. Try and accept that – and perhaps your life would never be a fucking waste. And perhaps then, as you turn to look beside you, you’ll see something that’s worth more than an empty seat.
