Innermountain Excerpt Featured in 15 Bytes

The "I" on the mountain

​Starting 2018 out right with an excerpt from my newest novel Innermountain. Many thanks to 15 Bytes for keeping Utah's art world connected.


For today’s installment of READ LOCAL SUNDAY we feature Kamas-based author and editor Barbara K. Richardson, winner of the 15 Bytes inaugural Book Award in fiction for her novel Tributary. Most recently the editor of a collection of essays by environmental writers on the subject of “dirt,” she returns here to fiction with this excerpt from her latest project, a novel manuscript titled “Innermountain” which follows the lives of students and staff at the now-shuttered Intermountain Indian School during the 1970-71 school year.
