Cassidy Beck speaks with Jason Lamont Jones, a computer science graduate from BYU, about his debut time-travel novel 'One Day a Year.' Jason discusses the eight years it took to develop his novel, starting with an idea inspired by historical sites in Salt Lake City. It was initially attempted as a screenplay and ultimately completed as a book. Jason also talks about his meaningful family connections within the story, his creative newsletter, his journey, and his dealing with vulnerability and imposter syndrome. The episode ends with a heartfelt story about Jason's favorite artwork, a watercolor painting by his late father.
