More Year of the Horse …
That 2014 will be the Year of the Horse according to the Chinese zodiac is apropos, since 2014 also brings us another World Equestrian Games — this time in Normandy. Not much hope of my getting there, but I’m exploring a few options (okay, one option) … meantime, here’s a greeting from the organizers, with a link to their promo video (click the image).
Writing From the Right Side of the Stall 
I had planned on going to WEG this year, but the organization of the website and ticket sales put me off. So I looked into world cup, in Lyon, same deal.
Instead we are going to Paris and tour France for a week or so, then going to Aachen for the days I want to see. Schedule done, can choose the seats, marathon on Saturday is free, friendly website.

I had pretty much written off this edition of WEG, but I have a kind client who is French and is intending to go … and she has all sorts of connections for affordable accommodations near Caen! So there is now some small possibility that I’ll make it there, provided I can actually line up enough assignments to justify the journey. THAT, unfortunately, is becoming more and more challenging to do these days … but I’m putting it out there, publishers and editors, that I am able and willing to provide WEG coverage. If you want me there, I will find a way to go. 🙂
