Had a great chat with Dave White on CBC's Airplay show last week about Sled Doug and @klondikebooks . You can hear the interview at cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-8… Dave is a Yukon treasure so I'll forgive him mispronouncing my name. Dowhal rhymes with howl, owl, towel ...

Cue the fanfare. Sled Doug by @DanDowhal is now out in print. It's available online in trade paperback at Amazon and hardcover at Barnes & Noble. The Klondike Sun calls it "a haunting, unforgettable journey into the Yukon bush."

Woo hoo! The Sled Doug eBook is available TODAY at Amazon (Kindle), Indigo (Kobo), Barnes & Noble (Nook), and Apple Books. Thank you @ParkaPress for bringing my latest book to fruition. Been a bit of a mush. Printed version will drop on April 13th.

Thrilled to announce that we will be publishing Sled Doug, the new novel from @DanDowhal next month. It's a quirky tale about the cost of conformity, set in the Klondike region of Canada's Yukon Territory.

Stoked that BURY YOUR HORSES is now available as an audio book on @AppleBooks. I was working with synthesized speech back in the 90s and am impressed how far the tech has come. The sultry cybernarrator certainly does it for me. books.apple.com/us/audiobook…

Another winter in the books. Me and the running dogs pose for an end of season team pic. L-R: Maple, Cherry, Bamboo, Pillar, Julian, and Griffin. We also invited the 5 retirees but they refused to give up their nap and come outside

Hear my recent radio interview with @YukonRadioDave about The Sourdough Starter Project for the #YukonRiversideArtsFestival produced by @KIACtweets in @DawsonCityYukon. It's about words the Yukon taught me. 15 words, 5 writers, 4 artists, 1 songwriter. cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-8…

Farewell to the genius who created more than 400 original scores for feature films, including my personal favourite, the music for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. #EnnioMoricone
