Judy Wardrope |
Judy Wardrope has been a professional equine journalist for nearly two decades. Writing under her own name and the pen name JW Equine, her articles appear regularly in equine publications around the globe.
She has traveled extensively to cover prestigious equine events throughout North America, Europe, Dubai and South Africa. She has interviewed officials, top riders, breeders, trainers and owners in several disciplines plus Thoroughbred racing. Her knack for asking insightful questions and attention to detail add both depth and color to her popular articles and regular columns.
Her work is also in demand by breeders. She is frequently called upon to craft sales copy for their advertising campaigns in brochures, magazines, auction catalogues and on the web. She brings a unique perspective to her description of each horse helping potential buyers better understand the attributes each has to offer.
Judy is a member of the International Alliance of Equestrian Journalists, a previous member of the National Turf Writers Association and was nominated for the 2006 Equine Vision Award through American Horse Publications.
At the same time she has expanded her writing and editing assignments to include sales copy, promotional materials, books and non-equine pursuits. Her editing skills have benefited clients in a broad range of industries.
