The Market List recommends you verify the market is active and accepting submissions before sending your manuscript via regular mail.

If you have recently submitted to The Horse or have experience with this market, please submit a comment below. Recent submission response times are always welcome and helpful to other writers.

From the The Horse guidelines:

The Horse does not accept unsolicited manuscripts. For assigned articles The Horse pays on acceptance and approval. Writers should submit a resume and samples of their writing to Alexandra Beckstett, managing editor, before submitting article queries.

The Horse prefers “how-tos,” technical topics, and topical interviews intended to inform horse owners. It accepts no first-person experiences except from veterinary professionals or unless assigned as such.

Ideally, clips (writing samples) should show an ability to organize technical information to maximize the understanding and education of the reader, as well as a smooth, correct writing style.

If you have a specific article topic in mind for a query, save yourself some trouble by first searching the site to make sure we have not done an article on the topic recently.

Articles range from short news items at 250 words to 1,800 word cover stories; payments vary depending on article length.
