Posted by: | Comments
For years I’ve called the process of making Benji movies trial-and-error film making. I always – well, usually – know what I want to see up there on the screen, but almost never know how to get it on film. I remember late one night in Oregon on Benji the Hunted there were about twelve of us crammed and bundled around the camera which was sitting on the dirt pointed down at a tiny little cougar cub who was supposed to be looking up at Benji, pleading with his eyes to not be left alone to be eaten by Read More→
New TV Interview with Joe & Kathleen On Location At Their Tennessee Farm

Nashville Newzine taped a new TV interview with Kathleen and moi on location at our middle Tennessee place. Kathleen and Skeeter did super but the old guy in the interview needs a haircut in the worst way. And seeing this actually motivated Kathleen to do the job before she headed back to California yesterday. The days and nights when she’s not here seem to drag by at a snail’s pace… and when she’s here they fly by at the speed of light. And now we’re back to the every-once-in-a-while schedule until next summer when the twins graduate. Sad. But I keep telling myself: We can do it. We can do it.

Hi everybody. This is Kathleen. I sent Joe to the barn so I could write this piece of truth. His next book has just come out and no it’s not the follow up to The Soul of a Horse. Joe had this book and two others almost finished when he pushed them aside to write “Soul”. This one’s not even about horses… unless you’ve ever wondered what kind of person could begin writing a book like The Soul of a Horse less than a year-and-a-half after acquiring his very first one. This new book will answer that question (in spades!). So, in truth, it is about horses because this journey is the one Read More→
