Who writes Barn Talk

Every Barn Talk answer starts with a question a rider asked. The people below write those answers and keep them up to date. When someone updates a page, their name goes at the bottom of it, so a page can have several contributors over time.

A note on names. Some of our writers use pen names, and their portraits are drawings rather than likenesses. The experience behind every writer is real: each one is a member of our team, and what they write about comes from their own work and riding. Our writers never post customer reviews or ratings.

Sometimes the best answer comes from outside our team: a trainer, a saddle fitter, an instructor. Guests are real people who contribute with their permission, under their own names, and they’re credited on every page they help with.
