OUT OF THE CHUTE - A New Venture

An AMAZING thing happened at the Ozark Creative Writers conference last month.  Okay, several amazing things but this one is HUGE and involves all of you.

KellysCountry is now expanding into publication. I'll give you the details in a minute but first, this is the most recent copy of Saddlebag Dispatches magazine, with western author Jodi Thomas on the cover.


Saddlebag Dispatches is a glossy, full-color magazine published four times a year. The subjects vary but all with a core cowboy/ western theme. Where Stories Of The West Come To Be Told  That might have something to do with our Editor-in-Chief being the talented author, Dusty Richards

Not all of KellysCountry will run in Saddlebag Dispatches. Rather, I will focus on one artist to write about each month. I'm kicking off my debut with an article on Rex Allen. Rex, otherwise known as The Arizona Cowboy, was a film star in the 1950s, along with Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. Prior to that, he was part of The National Barn Dance radio program from WLS, Chicago.

I won't give away everything. You can read the magazine on-line for Free or subscribe to the gorgeous magazine to have and to hold for $14.95 an issue. You'll understand what I mean when I say bargain. You won't find a magazine of this caliber on any newsstand at this price point.

Watch my Twitter and FB accounts for notice when the Winter 2016 issue goes live. In the mean time, here's a video of Rex Allen:


Turntable Tuesday returns tomorrow. The Warhorses are kicking things off! Until then...
