Hello all, I'm Kris Farmen, a novelist, historian and journalist based in Alaska. I'm also a surfer, and I'm running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the travel and research phase of a book about surfing in Alaska. Surf patrol said it was okay to post this link, so please take a look and consider contributing. Any amount helps. Cheers.
