I feel the time has come to add FAQs—”Frequently Asked Questions”—to the Zeiger Family Homestead Website. We get a lot of questions from people on a variety of topics, which I try to answer here on the blog, but I’ve never taken the trouble to organize them in order to make it easier for a first time visitor to get up to speed on what we’re doing here, other than the “Homestead Primer” on the right hand side of the page.
I’ve got some ideas of what to add to it, but I’m asking for your help. In the “comments” section below, please post any questions you might have, or think would be helpful to have answered in a site FAQ. I’ll use them to help build a new page for the site.
To make it worth your while, I intend to randomly give away free copies of my short story collection, Shy Ghosts Dancing: Dark Tales from Southeast Alaska. I won’t say how many, as I want to make the odds of winning good, and proportional. In other words, if we get 10 responses, then participants should have a 1 in 10 chance of winning. If we get hundreds, then I’d like to choose randomly from sets of 20 or so, that sort of thing. Be sure to include a valid email address where the comments form asks for it (addresses won’t be posted on line) so that I can contact you for a mailing address if I draw your name.
