I was on a panel last week to discuss reading freedom and banned books in Utah alongside other members of the @LUWriters, @LetUtahRead, and Christian McKay Heidecker. It's worth a watch, I think. Especially if you're @KenIvoryUT #UtPol youtube.com/watch?v=XU39gJGY…

Hey, if you're in the SLC area, my film is premiering tomorrow night at a screening at the Marmalade library. I would love to see ALL of you there. It would be nice for some friendly faces to be in the audience. mentalhealthyfit.org/focuson…

In the new @CityWeekly, I wrote a direct response to @KenIvoryUT’s disingenuous, lie-filled “defense” of Utah’s draconian book banning through the lens of Craig Thompson’s masterpiece from @DandQ, Blankets. (cc @LetUtahRead @LUWriters) cityweekly.net/utah/the-case…

Listen to the authors of Utah— STOP banning books!
@LetUtahRead!
13 Aug 2024
Utah officially banned 13 books from its public schools last week — including works by some of the most widely read authors of our time: Sarah J. Maas, Judy Blume, Margaret Atwood, and Rupi Kaur. Stop the insanity! How you can help: letutahread.org/stopbookbans

Since I have COVID, I couldn't be at the @LUWriters Quills Awards Banquet tonight, but that doesn't mean I didn't win some awards for my writing, bestowed by peers here in Utah.

You all have your tickets for Quills, right?!
23 Jun 2024
I'll be teaching at the @LUWriters Quills Conference in August. I'd love to see folks there. It's genuinely my favorite writing conference in the country and not just because it's in my backyard.
@MauriceBroaddus and @ShvetaThakrar are guests of honor!
