Tom is a professional writer driving most of the people in his life nuts as he obsessively tries to get better with horses. For a decade Moates was a leading writer in the country on the subjects of homesteading and renewable energy when he was suddenly and hopelessly smitten with horses. His life and writing both took sharp turns, as chronicled in this book, Discovering Natural Horsemanship,   and now he is a major figure in equine magazine writing.

He is a contributing writer at Equus, and writes regularly for Eclectic Horseman. His work also appears frequently in many other national and regional horse magazines including Western Horseman, The American Quarter Horse Journal, and Natural Horse. He lives in southwestern Virginia, on a solar-powered farm with his wife, Carol, along with four horses.
