Our friend Josh Kamler (Tiny Gigantic / Language in Common) has this to say about Alaska:

So I lived in Alaska when I was six.

I learned both how to swim and read there - and yeah, I learned late because apparently the schools in Cali in the 70’s weren’t so good - and once, my mom got stuck in the muskegg, which is like quicksand, but muddy and kinda gross but not fatal.  Also, I sucked face with a girl in an overturned canoe.


I have not verified the facts, but I know this: Josh and Axel have recently published their book Written on the City, and they would love it if you’d go out and buy a copy (or two).

We're Judy and Shawn. We're designers, we're parents, and we live in New York City.

We're reading the anthology State by State. This week we're reading and thinking about California.
