It publishes criticism on such writing, hosts an annual conference, and offers awards to works of fiction, poetry, essay, and criticism. 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 of social media.
