Horse Stories Wanted for Fourth Beloved Horses Book

The author of the BELOVED HORSES series, Sharon Miner from Tampa, is searching for more horses to include in her fourth book of the series. The theme will be horses in second careers and will feature both famous and backyard horses.

“So many wonderful horses have lived two lives,” explains Miner. “Some start their younger years on the racetrack and later train as show horses. Or show horses become therapy mounts, Western cutting horses retire to trail riding and school horses end up as family pets. College equestrian programs and police mounted troops are always seeking and receiving horses who retired from a previous life. I’d love to share with horse lovers young and old stories about those special horses.”

Sharon Miner’s horse books are illustrated collections of true short stories describing the unique bonds between horses and their riders. The anecdotes are amazing, amusing and inspirational. The third book of the series, BELOVED SPORT HORSES released in 2007, features a variety of equine athletes including Belladonna ridden by Katie Prudent.

Miner will be meeting horse owners while on her Equestrian Book Tour from September 19th through 27th starting from Tampa. She will be stopping at independent book stores and tack shops along the way in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey and Connecticut. To follow her travels, visit http://authorevents.blogspot.com and she will post locations where she stops.

Miner will conduct interviews in person and by e-mail beginning January 2010, but is building a list of contacts now. Submitters receive a complimentary copy upon publication.
