“MARES! (Ya Gotta Love ‘em)”

INTRODUCING my new book: MARES! (Ya Gotta Love ‘em)! This book is about mares, but it's about women, too. It's about the essence of being female. Dealing with a mare can be frustrating, and I’ve compiled 50 stories of help and inspiration. Learn about Territorial Mares from Julie Goodnight and Gender Training from Dr. Ron Meredith. and share the experiences of 36 other mare owners. Take a delightful look at the special qualities of mares who have touched their owners' hearts! Glimpse treasured moments between horse and human as they learn together and from each other, sharing the struggle and joy of building trust, respect, good communication and mutual dependence. Realize the profound love that can exist between two separate beings. From joy of birth to anguish of loss, there is a source of inspiration, love and healing in soulful eyes and hooves that fly!

“Sometimes A Woman Needs A Horse!”

My first book is still available through Pleasant Word, a Christian Print-on-Demand publisher. This nonfiction book is a personal story of my experiences as I learned to train a headstrong mare. It contains practical information on developing partnership with a horse, shares the excitement of competitive trail riding, and examines the amazing influence of Sally Swift’s basic riding principles (Centered Riding). As I worked with Fanny to instill trust and obedience, I realized that God was working with me toward the same goals. Through the details, experiences and principles of the horse and rider relationship, I discovered that horse training and Christian discipleship have many parallels!
