A few months ago, I decided to write a short recap of my adventure showing a friend's stallion last minute at Nationals, where he ended up being Reserve National Champion.
Horse & Rider has a small column/section for readers submitting their own stories, so I thought why not? I emailed the editor and off we went. She contacted me and liked the story and a few months later, emailed me again with a more condensed version of my story, since I do like to be a bit wordy and occasional ramble. Anyone reading my blog shouldn't be surprised on the rambling. Sorry.
A random friend of a friend picked up her copy of Horse & Rider and read the article before I even knew it was published. Quite a surprise to receive a message on Facebook regarding the story I didn't know was out. :)
So, as my husband says, I'm "almost famous" now with my tiny 900 word recap in Horse & Rider.

Pick it up if you like from your local story or check in the library. Let me know what you think.
It is certainly enjoyable to write and I am looking forward to hopefully writing more articles in the future. I do currently provide some content to the Morab registry and local magazines, but I'd like to have something nationally published sometime!
How cool!
