Default ugh, ex-mo writing about "Mormon Fiction" written by ex-mo's

I think there is something disingenuous here in that this guy can't find any non-ex-mo writers?

More pub for the ex-Mo in the SLT. It feels like this article almost certainly is a result of the Slate article.

I'm not saying this is a bad book, or the author isn't cool. At least in this article, it's not trying to promote ex-Mo's only in terms of Mormon literature.

Sorry, can you elucidate? I have no idea what that means.

I'm saying "don't tell me that there aren't self-identifying Mormons worth talking about who address Mormonism in their work."

So you're saying they should be promoting Mormons before getting lit from ex-Mos. Got it.
