New writing subject

admin Who is the Beave?

As I mentioned in my other blog I am changing writing subjects for the time being. Fall finds me in the woods taking part in most of the outdoor sports. I enjoy the taste of wild game and spend most of my free time chasing it. Seldom lucky, I eat a lot of hot dogs. Trapping, a dying skill is …

Should I create another blog?

Dale Langlois Who is the Beave?

Last night I sat in the same stand I have three times in a row. This is against what I believe, but the beech nuts are dropping, and we did have a strong wind here last night. I knew the deer would be feeding on the abundance of mast. In fact I expected lots of other animal activity because of …

Dale Langlois Outdoor adventures

Now that deer season has begun, my body will be making some changes. Hiking through the Adirondack woods will clear some of the cobwebs out of my body and mind.

My most anticipated review soon to come.

I have my Alpha team, (several guys I thanked in the Acknowledgements) but first and known as my toughest …

https://soundcloud.com/dale-langlois/the-second-intelligent-species Click on the link above to hear my first ever radio interview. As any writer knows, solitude is a comfortable companion. When I am in the public eye, The Beave runs and hides. I am on my own. It’s easy to see how nervous I am when you can clearly hear my voice shaking. Look how calm, (and even happy) …

Ice cream social

Dale Langlois Who is the Beave?

Recently, I was asked to do a signing as a local author to establish a new library in a tri town area. I accepted, although I would have to juggle sleep and work.
