Book Signings at Dressage at Devon

Dressage at Devon, Devon, PA, is the preeminent dressage show in the US, with a great trade fair. I’ll be signing copies of Olympic Equestrian and The USDF Guide to Dressage at The Paddock Saddlery booth Friday, Sept. 26, from 2:00-3:30 p.m.; Saturday, Sept. 27, from 4:00-5:00 p.m.; and Sunday, Sept. 28, from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. Hope to see you there!

Writer's Block Is a Gift

Writer’s block is a gift. Why? Because it means you have time to fiddle and faddle with your words (or the lack thereof). Writing on deadline—as in news coverage for a Web site—is a sure cure for I-don’t-know-how-to-begin. Get yourself an assignment that requires you to file the story right away, and you’ll find that when you absolutely, positively have to write, you can somehow manage it. Don’t know how to snag such an assignment? Try signing up for a Journalism 101-type class—anything that will force you to create on the clock.

Book Signing This Weekend

Saturday, September 6 is forecast to be rainy. What better way to spend the day than with good books? Come out to the Chester County Book Company, West Chester, PA, one of the area’s largest independent booksellers. Fresh (and mostly rested) from the 2008 Games in China, I’ll be signing copies of Olympic Equestrian: A Century of International Horse Sport beginning at 1:00 p.m. I’ll be happy to share stories of Hong Kong!
