About

Wilderness Interface Zone at A Motley Vision is a blog designed to help develop, inspire, and promote literary nature and science writing in the Mormon writing community. WIZ’s intent is to open a frontier in Mormon arts, demonstrating in the process that it’s okay to write nature literature (it really is). WIZ features criticism and theory; interviews; original writing, including excerpts, creative nonfiction, poetry, hybrid literary forms, and fiction; odds and ends such as field notes; and news and commentary on events related to nature writing. Secondarily, WIZ aspires to provide an interface area for other kinds of nature artists to discuss or call attention to their work or post news on shows or other opportunities. It is our wildest hope that not only Mormon artists but also writers who are not Mormon but are interested in nature writing will find WIZ a vibrant literary ecotone.
