The book authoring and layout are complete now and the book should be available in early November.\u00a0 There is also a companion <em><strong>Dog Friends Calendar<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Details are <a href=\"https:\/\/davebaar.com\/books.shtml\">here<\/a> on my Books page.<br \/>\n<em><strong><\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Update Nov. 19: <\/strong>I&#8217;m very happy to announce that<strong><em> Dog Friends<\/em><\/strong> is now available for sale online. I&#8217;ve received the first printed copies myself and am very pleased with the print quality by the publisher, Lulu.com. The Amazon Kindle eBook version is also now available. You can see excerpts and place book and calendar orders from <a href=\"https:\/\/davebaar.com\/books.shtml\">my books page<\/a>.<br \/>\nI have some useful experience now\u00a0 in publishing books through Lulu and also for Amazon Kindle. I might do a post later on my war stories about the hurdles I ran into and the details to be aware of &#8211; nothing serious, and I think both publishers are very good overall.\u00a0 In the mean time, if you have any questions for me about any of that, feel free to post here about it, or e-mail me at dogfriends[at]davebaar.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My book Dog Friends has been completed and is now available for sale.
