You Need To Finish The Book!

Poet Has Seizure at Seminar and Becomes a Author!

The day that Lowell Evans went to a writing seminar to enhance his poetry writing, little did he know that day would change his life. As he had been working day and night in the year of 2008, the lack of rest and other issues all met at one time. He had a seizure at the seminar!

When he came to, he was a little embarrassed and tried to explain the "condition" to the man he had just asked to take a picture for him. This man was Mr. Dreason Ruckett. He said to Dresason, "You know it is kind of funny, I started to write a book about epilepsy." Mr. Ruckett responded, "Why didn't you finish the book sir?" Lowell said to him, "Hey, I am not a author, I am a poet." The young man that asked him the question just crossed his arms behind his back and said with respect, "I know you are not an author sir, you did not finish the book! You need to finish the book sir."

Although this statement was one he did not expect to hear, Mr. Ruckett said it with so much respect, Lowell Evans decided to complete the novel, his first ever. All because of the fact that he had a seizure in front of someone who actually "believed in him", With the help of Dreason Ruckett and others, "The Village" was written. Mr. Ruckett is the owner of Lyrcial4cast Publishing in Hampton Roads. His partner Mr. Lee Sumlin III was the artist for the book.

The beautiful thing about Mr. Evans writing the book was that when he needed a publisher, not one time did Mr. Ruckett ask! When Lowell asked him to become the publisher, Mr. Ruckett responded, "It would be my pleasure." Lowell then asked, "Why didn't you ask me?" Mr. Ruckett said, "I knew if it was meant to be it would happen, so I just gave it to God."

Please meet Mr. Dreason Ruckett, Owner of Lyrical4cast Publishing
