Choose a Fabulous Pen Name!

Hey PONY Members! We’re excited that you’re excited about our new site, but please remember NOT to use your real name when commenting on our posts. It’s safer for all of us that way, and loads more fun!

Did you know that pen names, or in French, nom de plume, have been used throughout history by authors who, for one reason or another, want to conceal or change their identity? For example, Dr. Seuss is a pen name – that’s right, the author of Cat in the Hat made up his published name! For many, it’s part of the creative process. What name can you come with? Start brainstorming some fabulous pen names for yourself, and then share it with others – and know that you’re now part of a community of imaginative, horse-loving writers!

    I used to be a member of PONY but am no longer because my mother could no longer afford the package cost at the time since her other bills needed to be paid and such. I truly miss being a member and hope to one day join again. I have every package I ever got from PONY still and I look through them all the time. :)

    I was actually wondering if PONY could let me help out with the advice column? I think it would be a lot of fun. Sure you probably are able to do it on your own of course, but, I thought I’d ask anyway. :)

    Love PONY!!

  6. Scarwing 29 March 2010 at 8:21 pm Permalink

    I need some help. My horse Sandy is just 3 years old and she is scared of a bridle and bit.
    I hate to put it on her but I have to. To train her.
    Now she’s mad at me for putting the bit into her mouth and for that I can’t even get around her without her trying to kick me.
    What should I do?

    • Jessica/ponylover 10 April 2010 at 10:27 pm Permalink

      Dear scarwing,
      Hmm that is a problem!! I am so sorry but i can not help you. Maybe you could ask stella she sure to help you!

      jessica/ponylover

    • Horselover 11 April 2010 at 8:40 pm Permalink

      Hey scarwing are you still having trouble with getting your horse to take the bit??

    • Horselover 17 April 2010 at 11:07 am Permalink

      hey i can help you if your still having trouble

    • jayla 21 April 2010 at 9:19 pm Permalink

      number 1 thing you should do is teach the horse who is boss and i use that term loosly cause you dont want to get hurt dont get me wrong i love horses and all animals so here is what you should do you should get a grownup to hrlp you get the bridle and bit out of her mouth and then you should spend a little time with ur horse every day even if it is just sitting by the door every day to comfort her make sure she knows who you are and if she still continues to do the same thing get bobbie to help u

    • billiamrox 26 June 2010 at 9:49 am Permalink

      sorry i am not Jessica/ponylover but i hope you don’t mind if i help! Look at their age and interests but if you still can’t find one, then you can send in a PenPal request and in the summary you can describe what you want your PenPal to be like and how old you would like them to be i think. hope i helped!

      Hi Haystack,

      We don’t off this promotion anymore, but if you have an old MGM flier and a friend who wants to join, and we still have that MGM item, we’ll honor your request – just call the PONY hotline. Hope this helps!

      Thanks for writing,
