called "The Letter." To me, this is a reminder of how the river of denial runs deep in Mormon culture. Thanks, Don!

It struck me as very real. I've been "Dennis" in too many conversations where a "Karen" would solicit my support or sympathy, but whose own words would demonstrate that she was in the wrong and had not a clue.
Well done, Don.
Well done, Don.
The Letter is my favorite of Don's stories!! I felt almost like I was there!
Thanks all for reading. More to come.Thank you, cricket, too.
My Mormon family sees everything here. Lurkers abound. These are old time Stasi Mormons.
Ever think of writing a novel based on your life experience? ( that way no one can sue you if you call it a autobiography, because they have no 100% that you’re talking about them)
Just change the locations of the places and names, it'll still be obvious to people who know you, but your sisters can’t cry and say it’s them

I have already done so, my friend. The novel is titled "Orphans of Babylon." It's on Kindle. It's 90% true autobiography and 10% fiction, and I tell no one which part is which. The timeline is 1972-82.

“ and we won’t have anything to do with Christ-deniers.” ... that pretty much sums it up. Religion is the great destroyer of families.
