Comment on Paul Swenson–Deceased by David Briscoe

David Briscoe — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 11:33:22 +0000

Thanks, Sunstone, for publishing another one of Paul’s wonderful poems.
Here’s something I posted today with the Salt Lake Tribune article:
Paul Swenson, since my college days in Utah, has represented for me the very best of Utah Journalism.
He was an inspiring advocate of the very best in Mormonism, Utah culture, Utah literature, good movies and good Blue Grass. A liberal Mormon study group he helped start in the 1960s kept many doubters tied to the faith.
In addition to his poetry, he had completed a fact-based novel when he died and was looking for an agent and a publisher.
As an editor, he was one of the best I have known and quite annoying really, because he could show lesser writers they weren’t as good as they thought.
When Salt Lake City’s two newspapers failed to publish in 1975 a series Bill Beecham and I did for The Associated Press on Mormon church finances (even after the stories ironically won the top Utah print journalism award that year) Swenson had us write a follow-up piece for Utah Holiday.
I loved Paul as a friend, a fellow struggler in Mormon culture, and for his craft, his honesty and his keen insights. Read his poems. Read the words he’s left us.
Our dear friend is not really gone, just moving on to find more truth.

Hi Chuck,

Glad to hear you’ll be able to attend Friday night!

If you want to register in advance just for Friday, it’s $8 and you can use the film ticket link to pay–just put a note in the comments box with your name and indicate you’re buying a ticket for Friday night’s opening session and we’ll take care of the rest.

I just happen to be in LA that day for business. Is there a way I could attend Friday night and maybe be done in time to see the film Sat, which I can pay at the door. But is there a way to pay just for the Fri. Night session?

Comment on Glass Grapes by Suzanne

Suzanne — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 16:58:35 +0000

In Albuquerque, our glass grapes were made in the early sixties. Mother made a nice bunch that were a translucent purplish color. They featured them at “R.S. work meeting” and every home had a nice bunch. A few months after that, feather flowers became the rage in our ward and everyone had a bouquet of those, too. I think my Mom got tired of dusting these items because I don’t remember them even being out in her house by the time she died. I do wish we still had them! They are every bit as defining for the church and these women as all the quilts they made.
