MINNIE FINSTER by Jen Frankel
A sci fi comedy – When timid Minnie Finster accepts a vacation on an interstellar cruise line from her overbearing mother, she hardly expects to come face to face with space pirates, blue alien rats, and the strange truth of her own secret lineage.

JEN FRANKEL has recently embarked on a screnwriting glut-fest, and hopes to produce a heck of a lot of writing in the next few months. A fan of super-intense writing bouts, she placed second in the International 3-Day novel writing competition in 2005. Her supernatural thriller novel, THE LAST RITE, was published in 2002, and her screenplay for BEAUTIFUL, a former LIFT Out Loud short, was filmed as the inaugural project of newly-formed Wildcard Pictures.
