YOUNG RIDER

---
We sometimes buy 800-1,000 word “horsey interest” type stories.
Stories or events that will interest kids ALL over the country
that the editor is not able to cover personally. We need 4 to 5
good color pictures with stories like this. The pictures must be
color and tack sharp. The pay is about $200 for those types of
stories. We do buy short stories (approximately 800-1,000 words)
for about $150. They have to be “realistic” stories and not too
sugary sweet. We only use 4 to 5 of these a year. We get a great
deal of “children overcoming the odds to win things or struggling
to buy or get a horse of their own” so we don’t encourage these
types of stories. We would prefer funny stories, with a bit of
conflict, which will appeal to the 13-year-old age group. They
should be written in the third person, and about kids. The story
should have a definite plot, some sort of conflict (humorous,
serious or not-so-serious) and a resolution. No “childhood
memories” please. Click here for more information.
