Sophie the Gelded Space Stallion (432 pages in pdf format) by Don Boose
Born in the high cliffs of the mountains of Kansas, Sophie, our equine hero, is kidnapped by an ancient race of aliens from Xadu. Sophie escapes in her quest to save the universe and if not the universe, perhaps his Mother.
Slowly, but slowly making progress on getting Sophie to theaters. We finally have the international release poster completed. It’s been a long four weeks, but we think that now that our graphic artist has completed all four MS-Paint classes, the wait was worth it.
Last year we released the placeholder, pre-pre-vis teaser trailer. There is still a lot of placeholder footage and placeholder dialogue and placeholder music, but this pre-vis teaser trailer occupies the same space as the official teaser trailer will occupy when it is done.
We’ve had a lot of re-shoots over the past year as the previous footage was lost to a dumpster fire when the director of photography and most of the actors rage quit due to the fact that their mouths were unable to correctly form the words in the order that were written. And, some of them wanted to be paid. In money.
Still, look for it in theaters near you, April 2025.
About the writer: Don Boose has been spinning tales of space opera gold since 1999. Everything he touches turns to crap. He doesn’t believe in second drafts. The words come from somewhere in space, fully formed and go into his head and through his fingers on to the written page. He is not available for re-writes.

YEEHAW! I’ve been chompin’ at the bit to see Sophie in action! I heard rumor that Daniel Craig may have signed on to the project?

I caught a film festival showing in Akron late last year and, wow, I can’t put it in words…just like the actors. I will say that it’s an epic doozy of a film!
I snuck my video cam into the barn (yep, it was shown on a big sheet hung from the loft) and got myself a darn good copy on VHS. Just shoot me a message at the following link and a bootleg can be yours for just $19.99 + OH tax.

Please God, I only ask for one thing: let me live for at least one more year.
