In these episodes, Rena interviews Chad Anderson, organizer of a storytelling event, Voices Heard, and author of Gay Mormon Dad, available for purchase on Amazon. Rena and Chad discuss memoir organization, braided chapters, dialogue choices, imagery, details, poetry, building tension, writing influences, and storytelling vs. memoir.
From the jacket copy:
Chad Anderson grew up gay in a large Mormon family. After years of trying to conform to religious standards, which promised a cure for homosexuality, he married and had children before finally coming out of the closet. Gay Mormon Dad is his story of finally learning to love himself in a complicated world. Chad currently resides with his two sons in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he works as a social worker and a writer.
Don't forget to hear both Chad and Rena read at Voices Heard:

- Sept. 19th - Sugar Space Arts Warehouse at 7pm.
