WRITING INTO WONDER

Welcome to Writing Into Wonder! I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Mary Dansak. I am a writer, an equestrian, and a naturalist. I have two Substack publications:

  • Writing Into Wonder

  • Riding With Jasper

What is Writing Into Wonder?

Writing Into Wonder houses my occasional newsletter in which I share adventures from my riding/writing life. Writers, nature enthusiasts, and equestrians might like this publication. It also contains a section, Little Green Notebook, for my columns which are published weekly here and in a newspaper.

By subscribing to this publication, you will receive

  • occasional newsletters in which I share adventures with my favorite horse, Jasper, other ranch news, and tidbits from my writing/riding life,

  • access to Little Green Notebook which is where I publish my weekly columns.

Note that Little Green Notebook is a “Section” within Writing Into Wonder. You are automatically subscribed to this section if you subscribe to Writing Into Wonder, but you can opt out.

To Pay or Not to Pay

  • All subscribers will receive newsletters with updates on my riding/writing life, and the most recent edition of Little Green Notebook.

  • Additionally, paid subscribers have my deep gratitude, and can enjoy a warm fuzzy feeling of knowing they made a difference to me and my bank account.

What is Riding With Jasper?

Riding With Jasper is a separate Substack publication written over 12 months chronicling the first year of my return to horseback riding after a long hiatus. I attempted to republish the posts, but it was too much. While no longer actively publishing there, the year-long story is housed there and it does tell a sweet tale.
