Irreantum
''Irreantum'' is a literary journal compiled and published by the Association for Mormon Letters (AML) from 1999 to 2013, with online-only publication starting in 2018. It features selections of LDS literature, including fiction, poetry, and essays, as well as criticism of those works. The journal was advertised as "the only magazine devoted to Mormon literature." In its first years of publication, ''Irreantum'' was printed quarterly; later, it was printed twice a year. A subscription to the magazine was included in an AML membership.

Association For Mormon Letters
The Association for Mormon Letters (AML) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1976 to "foster scholarly and creative work in Mormon letters and to promote fellowship among scholars and writers of Mormon literature." Other stated purposes have included promoting the "production and study of Mormon literature" and the encouragement of quality writing "by, for, and about Mormons." The broadness of this definition of LDS literature has led the AML to focus on a wide variety of work that has sometimes been neglected in the Mormon community. It publishes criticism on such writing, hosts an annual conference, and offers awards to works of fiction, poetry, essay, criticism, drama, film, and other genres. It published the literary journal ''Irreantum'' from 1999 to 2013 and currently publishes an online-only version of the journal, which began in 2018. The AML's blog, ''Dawning of a Brighter Day,'' launched in 2009. As of 2012, the association also promotes LDS literature through the use ...
