3D book 2Thanks to the many readers who wrote me asking about a full-size book, I finally listened!

After almost a year of formatting and editing, and over two years' worth of blog writing, I'm thrilled to let you know that Horse Listening - The Book: Stepping Forward to Effective Riding is in its final stages of editing and becoming more of a reality as we speak!

If you have been printing out various blog posts and getting buried in a multitude of loose sheets - stop!

In Horse Listening - The Book: Stepping Forward to Effective Riding, I have compiled over 25 of the most popular and useful articles from this blog, collated them according to four themes, and prepared them in a tidy, all-in-one package for quick and efficient reading (or alternatively - long, thoughtful perusing of deep and meaningful concepts)!

It is designed to be thought-provoking but also chock-full of useful, ring-ready practical suggestions. As with all Horse Listening material, the purpose is to help the rider improve so that the horse can benefit.

New for the book is an "In the Ring" section, which takes the theory from each chapter and gives specific ideas for exercises that you can take with you to your next ride.

Book Release date: March 10, 2014!

More specific details (cost) will be available when the book is ready for release.

It will come in both paperback and Kindle format. There will be photos inside, but I'm still deciding on whether the interior will be full colour or black and white (which will be cheaper than colour). Please let me know in the comments below if you have any questions or suggestions for the book.
