When technology works it’s a glorious thing.
No, the Writers’ Trust of Canada hasn’t managed to snag a Star Trek teleporter, but they did use Skype to successfully beam me all the way from Dawson onto a 15-ft screen at the Berton House Gala in Toronto last night – which, if you’ve had any experience with Skype, is nothing short of incredible.


I was pretty nervous leading up to my interview, even if it was only to last a few minutes. After all, I used to watch Vicki’s talk show all the time in university and have always admired her. I’d also heard I’d be following a slideshow by Charlotte Gray about her time in Dawson and her recently released book, Gold Diggers: Striking It Rich in the Klondike. Gulp…no pressure, eh?


They also let me hang out on Skype afterwards, and I listened to a recording of Pierre Berton reciting Robert Service’s poem, The Shooting of Dan McGrew, and David Warrack on the piano entertaining folks as they mingled after the program was done. It was quite magical, and if the people physically there enjoyed themselves half as much as I did virtually, the night was a smash success.
(Thank you Elsa, Nigel, Joel and the other folks who made my skype attendance possible!)
Hi, Danielle. You were great! Yes, I was there. And you did look quite BIG. But you were a mainly a big hit. I did some time there myself, a few years ago, and loved the place. Probably they're not doing the Robert Service schtick across the street right now. And I know that Charlotte liked The Pit, but I preferred Bombay Peggy's. Amazing the amount of writing you can get done, eh? Party on. Ken McGoogan
Hi Ken!Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. And of course I know you were here: yours is the other book I sandwiched mine next to on the bookshelf – trying to have as much creative historical nonfiction greatness rub off as possible! 🙂 The Parks people are busy fixing up the RS cabin and I've been more of a Peggy's devotee myself until it closed for the season. Cheers!
