Welcome

I Write Books

I’ve been writing non-fiction books since 2017, including popular titles Confessions of a Timid Rider and Adulting with Horses. I have recently launched the Green Mountain Romance series, starting with Back Door Horse. This is sweet contemporary, small town romance set in Vermont. Make sure to sign up for my email newsletter for new releases, giveaways, and special offers! Want to read my books? Visit my store.

The Timid Rider Blog

My name is Heather and I’m not a very timid person, but I am a timid rider. I stepped away from horses as a teen due to anxiety and regretted it ever since. Now I’m back but things are a little different now. I’m a mother, I’m less flexible, and I’m a lot more nervous. The biggest difference? I’m following my passion despite lacking confidence. Join me as I talk about all those things we think but don’t say out loud.

I have been blogging about my personal journey on the ground and in the saddle since 2016. You can visit my latest posts below or go directly to my blog page:
