MEET THE AUTHOR OF "THE VILLAGE"- LOWELL G. EVANS

Born and raised in the small town of Gloucester, Va., Lowell G. Evans set out to achieve what he always believed was life in the way God wants it; to bring people together by treating them with unconditional love. Being the youngest of nine, he was able to learn early on how to be respectful and keep the values that were instilled in him. He is still a faithful member of the church and has not ceased in his mission to get people to see through blinded eyes when dealing with color, race, or diversity in others.

Mr. Evans has a passion for poetry as he usually refers to his works as "Words from the Heart" because God places the words on his heart, making it easy for him to put on paper. He is well liked and accepted by many because of his beliefs. His humanitarian side is best displayed through his daily actions as a father and a friend.

After developing epilepsy during his college years at Virginia Wesleyan in Norfolk, Va., Mr. Evans decided that he would open the eyes of

people to the truth about epilepsy. His goal, starting with this novel, is to educate on an international level about epilepsy and to make life better for not only those with the condition but for those who may one day come in contact with someone who is experiencing it. He strongly believes that a person's life will have an effect on another and desires to be a positive influence to all that he encounters.

With The Village, Lowell plans to start a scholarship for high school seniors, using the theme of the book to help raise epilepsy awareness. He is a certified teacher for the "Thinking About Epilepsy" program and wants to write a screenplay, inspired by the book, to express the significance of worldwide knowledge of the condition.

"For decades. parts of society has made life challenging for individuals who have Epilepsy. Now it is time for an individual with Epilepsy to take on that challenge for the lives of others!"
