[patrickyoung]

Our publishing company is looking for contributors for a revised version of our horse care guidebook, Insiders Know How: Owning And Caring For Your Horse. If you have experience of caring for horses and can write a chapter for the book, I’d love to hear from you. The type of topics we’re interested in include: the do’s and don’ts of buying a horse, cribbing control, how to look after your barn / stable, training your horse, coping with arthritis, looking after your horses teeth, proper nutrition for your horse etc…The list goes on and I’m sure you can add to it. You will be credited for the chapter. The book will be produced as a paperback and an ebook and will be marketed on Amazon, iBooks, Kobo Books and the Mithra Publishing website. If you are interested in contributing a chapter, please email me at: editor@mithrapublishing.com

Can I just ask whether you will be checking people's experience and credentials before publishing? If people are going to use this for reference it is important that it is accurate.

I agree. I also personally think it's a bit risky to open writing the book to anyone as everyone has different views and methods so it could become a bit of a patchwork quilt of a book full of different views and as metalmare said, you could get a complete novice
