Hello FaceBook Peeps:
Looking for a little help here. Writing the new Davecki book called Pony Girl and have hit a huge writer's block. In the story Davecki and Deanna (Think Anchorage, AK.) Delacort, (Don't think anything.) meet two gigantic work horses. The trouble is, these horses are either shy or stubborn and they wont tell me their names. Horses can be that way unless you didn't know. You have to earn a horse's trust in case you didn't know. Anyway, I'm thinking of being a bossy human and naming them Queenie and Frank. But Looking into their huge eyes, I just don't get the sense that they are Queenie and Frank types. So, the escapade is stalled until further notice or until "Blank" and "Blank" decide I'm trustworthy or, and here's where you my lovely peeps come in, modern technology somehow comes up with their names. Being as I don't trust artificial not-intelligence, I'm turning to FaceBook for resolution. I'd humbly ask you to speculate and sublimate and propose two names for the elegant couple in harness. The Percheron mare (Ladies first.) is 17-hands with a beautiful brown coat suggestive of good breeding and excellent feeding. She has a demur white streak running from between her ears to her softly snuffing nose. She's about 1,000 or 1,100 maybe, which again suggests excellent feeding and forage, or perhaps that a diet may be in order...don't mention the word diet in front of her. The Belgian gelding is a true monster 19-hands and black as coal. Except, of course, for those three puffy white stockings around his gigantic feet. The fourth hoof is off color a bit, sort of whitish-gray and with salt and pepper hair suggesting that some part of his DNA wanted four white feet, but couldn't quite pull it off. Mr. Majestic (Hmm, maybe?) is easily 1,900 lbs, maybe more, and has the widest eyes suggesting high intelligence. His harness had to be custom sewn by a genius leather worker named Molly. He can be an arrogant bastard at times, knowing he's a sublime example of horseflesh who, in his youth, (He's 21-years-old now.) was featured on the front cover of Pony Girl Magazine, the nation's (And possibly the world's) most widely read horsey magazine. With these brief facts about the dynamic equine duo, I'm asking for name suggestions other than Queenie and Frank. I'm thanking you in advance for solving my writer's block and giving these two "little horsies" their unique identities. PS: Davecki meets these heavy haulers while they're pulling a two story house down rural Wisconsin Highway FF. I know it's not enough info on what they're doing, but, I guess you'll just have to buy the book when it comes out to get The Rest of the Story...thank you Paul Harvey.
