Email List If you want to keep up to date on what the Mormon Lit Lab is doing, please subscribe to our email list. It’s a good way to hear about the next Mormon Lit Blitz, as well as receiving news about our anthologies and other projects.
Book Mentoring Project We love what people do with 1,500 words. If you enjoy the kind of literature you’ve read in the Mormon Lit Blitz, though, we hope you’ll also consider donating $5, $10, or $20 to support the eight authors currently in our book mentoring program.
