The Association for Mormon Letters (AML) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1976[1] to "foster scholarly and creative work in Mormon letters and to promote fellowship among scholars and writers of Mormon literature."[2] Other stated purposes have included promoting the "production and study of Mormon literature"[3] and the encouragement of quality writing "by, for, and about Mormons."[4] The broadness of this definition of LDS literature has led the AML to focus on a wide variety of work that has sometimes been neglected in the Mormon community.[3][5] It publishes criticism on such writing, hosts an annual conference, and offers awards to works of fiction, poetry, essay, criticism, drama, film, and other genres.[6] It published the literary journal Irreantum from 1999 to 2013 and currently publishes an online-only version of the journal, which began in 2018. The AML's blog, Dawning of a Brighter Day, launched in 2009.[7] As of 2012, the association also promotes LDS literature through the use of social media.[1] The AML has been described as an "influential proponent of Mormon literary fiction."[1]
