Just call me Frankie.
I’m an indie author. I write about the joy that comes from working with and around horses.
I’m retired now, but for 30 years I worked as a riding instructor, I trained and re-trained horses, and I grew a strong business founded on the principles of character development through horsemanship.
I’m currently working on my first memoir. I say “my first” because I already know there will be a second; I had too many stories to fit into one book!
I’m writing this blog to reach out to others who share common interests: other moms, other military wives, other workers in the horse industry, and those struggling to join the world of horses. Hopefully, we can learn a little from each other, and enjoy some ripping good stories along the way!

I write under a pseudonym to protect my friends and family, and the animals we have loved along the way.
But I promise, you can write to ‘Frankie’, and I will answer your email.
