This is the top candidate for the cover illustration.

Well, 59,457 words are in the right order, spell-checked and double-checked. The manuscript for my new book  “What the Dogs Taught Me” goes to Skyhorse Publishing in New York late this week. All that’s left is a final look at all the photos and illustrations, then a long wait.

Publication date (with any luck) is just before hunting season next year.

If you want a sneak peek, stay tuned here, or subscribe to my Upland Nation newsletter as I’ll be sharing bits and pieces between now and publication.

What do you think of the photo? It’s me and Buddy, shot at dawn by David LaBelle on Coyote Butte near my house.
