I recently put out an ad for The Forgotten Teachings of Joseph Smith. It received hundreds of Christian troll comments but was largely supported by Mormons. However, a couple mainstreamer comments warned readers not to buy the book because it was obvious that I was set to destroy readers’ testimonies. Part of me rolled my eyes in despair for the poor soul. Part of me felt sad. Part of me sloughed it off as a common concern people have when they see my books.
Sometimes, it’s helpful just to know where an author is coming from and a short blurb on the back of the book doesn’t really do the job and leaves the reader wondering … AND I think I have a pretty good story behind why I wrote some of my books so I thought this would be a fun podcast to do … hopefully for you and me both.
