The Village..It Needs To Be A Movie

WHY NOT A MOVIE?

A number of times I ask people, "Have you seen that movie called "The Village"? The response is, "No, I have not. What is it about?" This is when I explain to the individual about the story of "The Village", Mr. Kevin Bolden, and epilepsy.

The next response is either, "Where is it playing at or is it on DVD?" This is when I share with them that it was a book I wrote to help educate people about epilepsy. The normal response I receive is that, "Man, that sounds so much like  movie."

Now that film maker Cristobal Krusen of Messenger Films has read the novel and interviewed me, here is his response:


 "The interview I conducted provided me the opportunity to explore areas of your story that I had pre-identified as holding the potential for a successful cinematic treatment. I now feel confident saying that – properly written,produced and directed – a compelling film can be made for a wide audience based partly on your book and partly on details of your life."

Cristobal Krusen

As I was thinking about the novel, this movie and this poem came to my mind. I am a "poet at heart". God gives me the words and all I do is put them on paper!

You might can relate to someone who put their faith in "the system" that we live in today but did not receive their return on their "investment." God has given us all whatever we need to make it in life and this book which has the potential of becoming a "movie" says it all. Please see the words that God placed on my heart about this on August 12,2012. I ask for your prayers for this to come to pass. I am going to give it my all as I feel it is what God wants me to do to help others with epilepsy and other health conditions as well.

Sincerely,

"THE VILLAGE MOVIE"

When I  talk about "The Village"
It is not just a place for one to live
I am referring to a group of people
Who have nothing but love and respect to give

When I wrote my novel titled "The Village"
This was a way to keep me at peace
For all the things that happened to me
Should not have, but they did not cease

I got my college degree and worked hard everyday
This is what I was told was "The Secret" to life
I was even blessed to become a Father"
Of course that was after I found myself a wife

So I followed the "Game Plan" I was taught
For I was informed that "You can not fail"
Well then "epilepsy" came into the picture
And attempted to take the "wind out of my sail."

But I refuse to let anything change my thoughts
For what I had learned, "My God was the source"
This is why "The Village" will become a movie
For people need to know God, so I have to use my "voice"

I am speaking to everyone there is
And at the moment I am just doing it on paper
But God knows that many people will not take time to read
So the movie "The Village" is on the way much sooner than later.

SCHOOLS REQUESTING TV ABOUT EPILEPSY EDUCATION

Bettie F. Williams Elementary School Contacts TV Station


Mr. Lowell Evans has agreed to be a part of our Career Days activity at our school.  He is speaking to our kids as an author of his very important book about epilepsy. It would be a great human interest story if your station could cover one of these important events to share a very interesting story. Career Days will be held at Bettie F. Williams in Virginia Beach on Thursday, May 24th and Friday, May 25th from 8 – 10 AM.  It would be a great story to tell  the world that  people with disabilities are eager to share their own stories to help others have a better life. He is an incredible guy.

Thanks,
