The inside stories . . .Lenora Smith & Dream - Photo by: Kahne Smith

We know there are powerful, inspirational women around the country and around the world who are making a difference with horses in their lives. Since this publication is for you and about you we would like to invite your stories, photos, videos and discoveries knowing they could be just what inspires someone else to pursue their dream.

Whether it's your story or about someone you know, send it to the Publisher at The StableWoman Gazette so that we can pass it on to our readers. Let's celebrate our strength and pass it around.

The StableWoman Gazette – Guidelines for Publishing

All content contributions / submissions are reviewed with the Managing Editor before publishing is granted.

Amateur writers & photographers are certainly welcome as well as the experienced to submit stories and or images.

We are looking for stories from the heart that honor the horse and it’s relationship to the women of all ages.

However, the focus of the material for the "Your Stories" section is:

• How the horse has enhanced the life of a woman, be it a career or personal journey
• How the horse plays a role in the improvement of life or saving the lives of women/girls
• How the horse has helped women shape their dreams or made them come true
• Etc. etc.

If you know of a special story that you would like to see republished here on the SWG, let us know and we'll see what we can do.

See an interesting video story on "YouTube" or elsewhere on the internet about women and horses? Let us know by sending us the link and we'll review it.

Stories should be submitted in a text or Word document. Photos need to be a standard .jpg file, 200 dpi preferred. Most videos are large files and should be uploaded to this dropbox instead of emailing. All copyright laws must be obeyed and permission from the author(s) obtained before submission.

Again, this magazine is for you and about you. We welcome your submissions, ideas and comments.

Submission Guidelines for Book/DVD Reviews

Book / DVD reviews should all follow a bit of a standard book review format, with a heading that includes the title, author, ISBN number, retail price, publication date, publisher, where it can be purchased and a bit at the end about the author, including the author's website where possible. Most of that comes straight from the inside cover of the book or a Google search of the author's name.

Reviewers might want to consider some or all of the following:

• Opening the review with a quotation or a few lines that captures the reader's attention.
• What is the author's main point or theme?
• How well does the author write? You may use a brief quotation to illustrate your observations.
• Who is the book for? - general horse lover, trainer, adult, young adult, beginner, experienced, etc.
• Your personal opinion about the book and your favourite part. 
• A conclusion that ties the review together and provides a wrap-up comment.

Thank you for your personal participation in The StableWoman Gazette. We look forward to helping you share your articles, stories and reviews with our viewers.
