Become the Next Great Equestrian Blogger!

We’re seeking new voices and fresh perspectives from horse lovers like you. If you think you’ve got what it takes, enter our Next Great Equestrian Blogger contest.



Who is Eligible
You must be 18 or older, but any level of horse experience is acceptable. We want to hear from adult amateurs juggling a day job and horses, riding lesson students still learning the ropes, college equestrians on the intercollegiate circuit, and anyone else who loves horses and writing.



If you’re selected as a HorseChannel blogger, you’ll need to commit to submitting one weekly blog post for three months. You’ll get a byline on each post, plus promotion of your work on our homepage, in our e-newsletters and on our popular Facebook page.

How to Enter
This contest is now closed! Stay tuned. We’ll be announcing the Next Great Equestrian Blogger soon!

You must be at least 18 years old to enter. Employees of I-5 Publishing are not eligible to enter. Entries become the property of I-5 Publishing, which reserves the right, without further consideration, to use all materials in any publication, media and related promotions. The company cannot confirm receipt or return entries. Entry into this contest requires that you supply contact information, including your name and email address.

Your name—and possibly city, state and/or country—along with text or photos submitted as part of your entry, may be posted on Horse Illustrated’s website or other websites and social media pages owned or managed by I-5 Publishing in conjunction with the contest and its results, and on sponsor websites and social media as well. Information you provide may be shared with the contest sponsor, which may use the information for marketing purposes, as well as to facilitate prize delivery.

Such requests must be made directly to the sponsor.

  • So you (Horse Channel) will give us a byline, and we are to write per said byline. Will there be an opportunity to send in stories, articles, and events that has taken place concerning horses?

  • Wow I'm excited about this. I've been wanting to write a book, this will be an good chance for me to get started.

  • Wow! I am so excited to be able to have the chance to submit my writing about the passion of my life! This is something I've often wanted to do, but did not really know how to start it, so now, here we go! Hope you will select me as a blogger for Horse Channel.com! I look forward to hearing from you!

  • Plenty for me to write about since horses are my hobby as well as my paid work. I would really enjoy combining both of my passions (horses and writing) into some things that horsechannel.com readers would appreciate. I'll give it a go and maybe be the 'chosen one'.
