I decided to start Hoofbeats for several reasons. Last summer, I had a teen magazine called Outspoken. That didn't last for very long because there are so many teen magazines on AOL and the Internet. And it wasn't very fun writing article after article about makeup and fashion. Don't get me wrong-teen magazines are fun to read, but I got bored with one.
Then, I had an idea. What if there was a free online magazine all about horses and horseback riding where people could get grooming tips, learn about showing, debate horse issues and read cool articles?
That idea became a reality. I wrote down several ideas and brainstormed possible titles. Then I set up a basic format. Finally, I just needed the last ingredient: subscribers. So I posted messages on countless horse boards and e-mailed people. Now, after a few months I have around seventy subscribers, but I want as many subscribers as possible!
