Missoula writer Sneed Collard III turns publisher for himself, other authors – Bucking Horse Books "Great Reads from the West."

When Sneed Collard III’s latest book, "The World Famous Miles City Bucking Horse Sale," was rejected by 15 big-name publishing houses, he knew the time had come to take charge of his own destiny.

Despite an economic recession, and despite the runaway trend for all things Internet, the award-winning children’s book author holds doggedly to the belief that books aren’t irrelevant, they aren’t retro or quaint holdovers of the 20th century and, in fact, there is a high demand for ones that are regionally produced with regional themes.

So committed is he to this idea that Collard didn’t drown his rejection sorrows in Missoula’s famous author-haunted watering holes, but instead from his Rattlesnake home launched his very own publishing business, named for the muse that started this new adventure.

It’s called Bucking Horse Books http://www.buckinghorsebooks.com/ , and its motto: "Great Reads from the West."
