About Dale

Started at 45. Never stopped.

Dale Langlois didn't plan on being a writer. Recovering from back surgery in his mid-forties, he taught himself to type from a library book and started writing. After decades in an aluminum smelter, he's now retired and writing full time. When he isn't at the keyboard, he's in the Adirondack woods.

A story has to be original, believable and honestly told. Writing isn't a gift. It's a skill you earn.
