==Life==
His most recent book ''Keeping Faith: A Skeptic's Journey'' draws on time spent living as a member of the monastic communities of the Trappist Abbey of Gethsemani in Kentucky and the San Francisco Zen Center as a means to examining what it means to a skeptic to have and keep faith. Keeping Faith weaves frank conversations with Trappist and Buddhist monks with a history of the contemplative life and meditations from Johnson's experience of the virtue we call faith. It received the 2004 Kentucky Literary Award for Nonfiction and the 2004 Lambda Literary Award for best GLBT creative nonfiction.
In February 2016, University Press of Kentucky will mark Johnson's place in the literature of the state, region, and nation by publishing a new novel,''The Man Who Loved Birds'', at the same time that it reissues his earlier novels ''Crossing the River'' and ''Scissors, Paper, Rock''. Johnson is also the author of three cover essays in Harper's Magazine, most recently (April, 2015) ''Going It Alone: The Dignity and Challenge of Solitude'', available for reading through his webpage.
