One of the nicest surprises from writing my book is that the current villagers in Sleetmute have discovered it.

COMMENT: Hello Stan, I have lived here in Sleetmute, AK all my life and I think that your book is just the greatest. I was wondering if you have any more pictures of Sleetmute or the people here from back then. I have noticed that you have a picture of my father\'s grandmother (Gramma Charlie)! I would like to see more if you would like to share them. It\'s so nice to see Sleetmute back then...it looks so different now compared to a while ago. I\'m still living here, I work at the Post Office as the Postmaster here and I have bought your book and I\'m planning on sharing them with my children and the pictures also. I would appreciate it if you would share more of your photos if you have the chance too. Thanks for your time and have some happy holidays to come!

COMMENT: Stan, I just wanted to let you know the folks of Sleetmute have just discovered your book and are getting the biggest kick out of it. Many of the folks you right about are gone now, but their kids and grandkids are still there and enjoying your story. Thanks for the laughs & memories.

Sleetmute is sure a lot less 'remote' now, with the internet and satellite dishes, than it was when I was there in 1968.......
