A cancer diagnosis kept him from his goal of working 50 years on the radio. But only by a few months. Rick Howe grew up with a passion for broadcasting and reporting. And he's gathered a lot of stories in the 49 years in the business. He's taken time between his ongoing treatments to write his memoir "Behind the Mic Five Deacades Covering the News in the Maritimes" (Pottersfield Press). He also writes and discusses, for the first time publicly, his treatment for rectal cancer and his ongoing health concerns. He's found a quiet spot next to the ocean in rural Nova Scotia where he's combing through his old notebooks to keep sharing stories. His next book is already written to be published in 2023. It's a journey from the first moments he opened the mic and the newsroom hi jinks and characters he met over the years, to his last broadcast and what lies ahead.
