Winter 2013-2014 was a great Blessing! I was introduced to Jan Asleson, an amazing artist who has agreed to illustrate the George the Therapy Horse children's book. For more information on Jan go to her website at www.spiritwingsdesigns.com.
Currently, I am learning and setting up the administrative part of having a book published and printed. I'ts a hard slog for someone who knows nothing of publishing ... but I know a LOT more now than I did when I started. We are anticipating a June 2014 printing date but you can check out the website at www.therapyhorsechildrensbooks.com or facebook at Therapy Horse Children's Books for updates.
As soon as all is finalized, I will be looking for locations to do some book signings ... which sounds like great fun. I will also be marketing to Therapeutic Riding organizations, Equine Assisted Services organizations, counselors/mental health organizations as well as young people who love stories about horses!
The first book, George the Therapy Horse - George's Big Move will be available online only at first for a retail cost of $16.95 each.
Keep in touch.
Blessings.
Kathleen.
George is the lead character for a series of children's books about Equine Assisted Services. We will follow George as he becomes a therapy horse and share his many experiences as he meets and helps people.
