Now my focus is more on dressage so Dressage Today is my choice.The Art of Dressagehttp://www.theartofdressage.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-38709405344904719452009-10-20T14:12:49.745-07:002009-10-20T14:12:49.745-07:00I currently subscribe to Horse & Rider, but am...I currently subscribe to Horse & Rider, but am not entirely happy with it. My interests are really too different from the target audience. I pick up the occasional Practical Horseman and Trail Rider at the feed store, but not often enough to justify subscribing.<br /><br />Like Cheryl Ann and Laura, I just don't have enough time to read many magazines. That is why I let my subscriptions lapse for the two mule magazines I used to receive, "Mules and More" and "Western Mule." <br /><br />However, I was buying some books at Amazon.com the other day and they offered me a 1-yr subscription to Southern Living for $5. (Yes, that's right: $5!) I couldn't resist.<br /><br />On the subject of online books, I have read some books in that format and I don't hate it, but I still prefer to hold a real book in my hands.muleriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10660063475807674685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-18810644539286356492009-10-18T12:03:44.379-07:002009-10-18T12:03:44.379-07:00Jami--I'm like Cheryl Ann, I don't have ti...Jami--I'm like Cheryl Ann, I don't have time in my life to read magazines any more. And I do believe that paper magazines may become obsolete, as paper newspapers are currently headed. Is this good or bad? I honestly don't know. I don't read magazines or newspapers online either...takes time that I could be spending elsewhere (like with the critters or my kid or my garden). I do admit to hoping that real books won't become obsolete...I love books. I don't think online books can take the place of "real" books. However, some readers do write to me saying they want to buy my books online and do not want a physical book....one woman said she felt it helped save trees. So there's always more than one side to the question.Laura Crumhttp://www.lauracrum.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-58060140127119403552009-10-18T09:57:35.392-07:002009-10-18T09:57:35.392-07:00Cheryl Ann, That brings up an interesting question...Cheryl Ann, That brings up an interesting question I'd not thought of when I wrote this.

Besides, I can pick up old copies of some of them at the thrift shop for 10 cents each! I did enjoy Perfect Horse, but I think it's too pricey...so, now, I just go online and read up on whatever I want to read about!!!Cheryl Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04211625006758463474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-16503255474070024392009-10-18T09:26:50.370-07:002009-10-18T09:26:50.370-07:00I'm a big fan of Equus - great health informat...I'm a big fan of Equus - great health information, and I also like John Lyons's Perfect Horse - although I don't use all of John's methods, I get good ideas and many of the practical horsekeeping articles are useful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
