A big thank you to Peter Marsan at Bookingham Palace in Salmon Arm for hosting us for a book signing for the brand-new edition of Slumach's Gold, officially out on October 29! We had such a great time that we'll be back again on December 7. Heritage House

A big thank you to the ~70 friends and neighbours who attended my "PREDtalk" at Predator Ridge Resort last night! In addition to talking about the new edition of Slumach's Gold, I also had the chance to talk about my travels over the years, and how they've inspired my writing.

Tune in to CBC Vancouver's BC Today tomorrow (Oct 29) at 12:30 pm when my brother (& one of my co-authors) Brian will be in studio and I'll join via Zoom to have a "publication day chat" with host Michelle Eliot about the new edition of Slumach's Gold. cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

I was offered a wonderful opportunity to deliver the keynote address about "Cathedral Thinking" at last week's Cape Breton Tourism Summit hosted by CBITTN & Destination Cape Breton. One of the world’s “best islands” and with an incredible future.

Thank you, Rick Antonson , for delivering such an inspiring keynote at the 2024 Unama’ki - Cape Breton Tourism Summit! Your insights left a lasting impact! #TourismLeadership

Nature lovers and outdoorsy folks can be hard to buy for (gear can be expensive and is so specific). Fortunately, we’ve got a book for that! buff.ly/3OI4UR7 #HolidayShopping #GiftGuide #Outdoors #NatureLovers

Looking forward to another Slumach's Gold book signing at Bookingham Palace in Salmon Arm on Saturday, 11 am - 3 pm.

Recently, my brother (and co-author) Brian and I had a great time talking about Slumach's Gold with Global BC's Jay Durant. globalnews.ca/news/10927004/…

This was a fun interview with Feliks Banel! Happy to be able to share it here. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bon…

Looking forward to a couple of book signings over the next couple of weekends. First at Coles in Vernon this Sun, June 8 from 11am to 3pm. I'll then be at Bookingham Palace in Salmon Arm the following weekend, on Sat, June 14, just in time for Father's Day!

It might be the most important interview I’ve ever participated in given the pivotal, uncertain times for Canada/USA relations. My conversation with Rick Steves and fellow Canadian author Wade Davis was broadcast on 600+ PBS stations this past weekend. ricksteves.com/watch-read-lis…

This was a fun one! Sharing an interview I did with fellow BC author, Bill Arnott. mailchi.mp/439d469d798a/t…
