- Strong writing with a penchant for creative storytelling and an ability to engage the relevant audience.
- Ability to share one blog post per month.

What’s in it for you?
- Exposure to thousands of loyal readers on whichever platform suits your discipline best
- Your byline and dedicated author page on each blog
- Promotion of your work on our social media platforms
- Links back to your blog or website in each blog
Some of our RRP bloggers have even gone on to become part of the Nation Media writing team, which is to say we’ve really enjoyed meeting more writers through this process each year. We want to share your journey with more horse lovers just like yourself. To express interest in sharing your blogs, please see the contact information below for each Nation Media platform.
