PONCHA SPRINGS, Colo. July 20, 2009— Have you ever had an ad drop out at the last moment—or a space that didn’t sell before printing deadline? Or has someone turned in a story that’s just a little too short? It’s Julie Goodnight and www.juliegoodnight.com to the rescue. Check out the newest addition to Goodnight’s online “Training Library” here and read more about training online (found with a quick link at the top of www.juliegoodnight.com <http://www.juliegoodnight.com> ). Goodnight—known for her clear communication in print and on her new RFD-TV show, Horse Master with Julie Goodnight—provides a tip each month for use when you, as an editor, need just a little more content or a great quip to fill out your magazine. Tips may be edited for style, length and content. Content is provided free of charge. Here’s a tip to help you when you’re in a layout crunch . . .
Rein Hold for a Balking Horse
A balking horse is one that refuses to move forward in response to normal cues, usually because you are asking him to go somewhere he doesn’t want to go. Baring legitimate reasons for the horse not to go forward, like asking him to step over a rattlesnake, the horse has become willfully disobedient and you must correct him immediately. Cue him to move forward by first reaching your hands up towards his ears, letting your weight to come forward and your legs to stretch back and close in his sides. Be sure to exaggerate reaching forward so your horse is very clear of your intentions; often I see people pulling back on the reins when trying to cue the horse forward. When he is looking for an excuse not to go forward, even the slightest contact on the reins will give him to excuse he is looking for and reaching forward and shifting your weight forward will also discourage him from rearing, which is a more extreme refusal to move forward.
