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).
