Mariah Tyler Moore
Mariah Tyler Moore is a genre-bender by necessity. Her life has never fit into neat categories, so she stopped asking her work to. She founded Radical Resilience, LLC, which she runs as a small press imprint for her novels and as a creative services company offering web design and content work to clients. She has published twelve novels and has five more manuscripts in progress, some started recently and others carried since her first professional byline nearly two decades ago. Her catalog spans contemporary romance, dark fantasy, science fiction, small-town literary fiction, and whatever else refuses to leave her brain alone. What ties her work together is not a genre or a plot. It’s her strongest conviction: Radical Resilience, the idea that our wounds are not our weaknesses, they are our wisdom.
Radical Resilience is not a marketing angle for Mariah. It’s the philosophy she built to survive her own life, and it’s the through-line of everything she creates. At sixteen, she fought for and won legal emancipation. She lives as a neurodivergent woman managing autism and multiple chronic illnesses. She does not talk about grit from the sidelines. She works at it daily, building a legacy meant to outlast her.
All of her characters carry the same DNA. A legally blind designer whose experimental contacts let her see patterns invisible to everyone else. An autistic medical student whose sensory overload triggers astral projection. In her books, otherness is never an obstacle to be overcome. It’s the superhuman power that saves everything.
Her novel The Spaces Between Us proved that a story about healing, empathy, and an unfairly adorable dog could top the charts, holding #1 in Kindle Literary Sagas for 48 consecutive hours. Lawful Good, Ink & Water, and The Green Donut round out her personal favorites from the Moore Universe catalog.
Libraries have been part of her plan from the beginning, because libraries outlast the people who write the books. The Las Vegas-Clark County Library District carries eight of her titles. The Sanpete County Library Consortium is acquiring her entire catalog of twelve. The Karen H. Huntsman Library at Snow College holds three, and one novel lives in the Indie Nevada BiblioBoard Library collection. Across the Intermountain West, roughly thirty library branches now have her books available for their patrons.
Mariah also covers Central Utah as an independent journalist, a full-circle return to the profession she first entered at age twelve. She chairs the Sanpete Cares Coalition, running meetings that connect people with the resources they need. She serves as founding president of the Sanpete County Wordsmiths, the first League of Utah Writers chapter in the county, and she founded Writers of Utah, a free Discord community connecting authors across the state, which debuted its inaugural booth at the 2026 Scandi Fest.
Speaking has become its own arm of her work, and it’s how she’s chosen to build her brand: in person, in rooms where people show up on purpose. She served as faculty at the 2026 Las Vegas Writers Conference and has been invited to return as faculty in 2028. She taught Write Like You Mean It: A Radical Resilience Workshop for Writers at the Clark County Library, and is bringing Work Like You Mean It to Snow College’s GRIT Center for their Fall 2026 entrepreneurship seminar.

Yesterday morning I stood in the Paul C. Blau Theatre at the Clark County Library and taught Write Like You Mean It: A Radical Resilience Workshop for Writers. My workshop. My slideshow. My workbook. My flyer on the library wall with a big arrow pointing to... me. To me?
Two years ago, I opened a Google Doc and typed out a few goals. Number one on the list? I wanted my novels in at least one library. Longevity and all. Now? Six of my fiction books are in Las...
I just got home from the Quills Conference in Salt Lake City.
I wasn't a speaker or attendee. I was a volunteer and a chapter president, which lands somewhere in the middle of the official-capacity spectrum, and even that felt like more space than I was allowed to take up.
Let me tell you why...
The Reason I Didn't Enter the Contests
I didn't submit any of my work for the awards. I disqualified myself preemptively because I've used AI in my process. Here's what I mean by "used AI." I have never...
