Dan Dial Book Signing at Schoharie Mercantile Aug 2

SCHOHARIE – Dan Dial will be presenting copies of his new book, “Abby’s View” at the Schoharie Mercantile, 303 Main Street, Schoharie. The book signing on Saturday August 2, from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm

Dan has an interesting story to tell:

“I have been writing off and on since I was a young man. Mostly short stories and poetry. One day I was jotting down several ideas for a story. One of them was about a German Shorthaired Pointer named Abby. I wrote a few pages about her and her sisters but left it alone for quite some time. It wasn't until Abby was the only dog left and she had started recovering from a severe illness that she started sharing her stories with me. I can't really explain it but I know it happened. Several weeks after she started, I approached the local paper to see if they might publish some of her stories. She ended up having a weekly column for a year. This book is those stories plus others she shared with me.”

“I was proud to know her. I was made better by knowing her. She had a heart as big as the world around her. I am very happy to be able to share her stories with a larger audience. Suspend for a while your thoughts on what a dog can and cannot do and let Abby take you inside her world.”

Dan lives in Huntersland, and continues to write in his spare time.
