I have seen much of the same, sad phenomena in those coming out of college and into the arts, whether it be the written words, theater, music or sports. If we are to stand, shoulder-to-shoulder, as witnesses of Christ then we must take the words of Orson Whitney into our hearts "and we shall yet have Miltons and Shakespeares of our own." That day has come and the arts performed and written by Latter-day Saints will continue to improve. I support you in this endeavor.

I appreciate you writing this up. I especially like how you used the threefold mission of the Church to give focus to what we're doing. It reminds me of Dr. Burton's using the Restoration as a paradigm for Mormon literary criticism in "<a href="http://humanities.byu.edu/mldb/gbask.htm" rel="nofollow">Towards a Mormon Criticism</a>." Anyway, I know I feel inspired. I only hope my own blog posts will do this vision justice. Liz, this is a great vision for our blog. I appreciate you writing this up.
