Survey says: The people have spoken. Unanimously. It’s okay for me to wander about, narratively speaking. [For those who missed last week, I posted on a completely non-equine topic, Seven Life Lessons Learned From Candy Crush, and then asked for opinions on doing so, Off Topic: Yay or Nay?] I received two further pieces ofContinue reading “Poll Results”

Show Tweets: Winter Tournament 3, Leeds AL
Show tomorrow. Curiously unstressed. — Rodney's Saga (@RodneysSaga) February 8, 2014 Right now, I'm dreading getting up early.

Particularly since women around these parts tend to color their hair, making my gray hair unusual and aging. When I look at me,Continue reading “Foto Friday: Flashback”
Off Topic: Yay or Nay?
Yesterday’s post had nothing to do with horses. Was that appropriate or not? The post also exists on my second blog, Off Topic. The existence of multiple blogs was addressed in The Katie Chronicles: A Blog for Each Personality. My answer there was: I have two. Different topics and totally different writing approaches.
