Show A6 Culture Monday 9 August 3, 2009 Velwythe: Bumpy start with promising future •TIMOTHY E. WOOD ll . Culture writer With a background in classical philosophy and a love of video games, a new author brings an original idea to the overstocked book aisles. Bonn Turkington, a recent UVU graduate, was always intrigued by the interactive environments of video games and RPG's, but also enjoyed the intellectual feasts of Greek and Russian philosophies. This mix laid the foundations for a unique vision of a fantastic world. After suffering the loss of his father in 2001, NIGHTFALL from • A5 he delved into his love of story making. A plot unfolded, centralizing on the mental growth of his bachelor protagonist, Vaan, in a world that comes under the evil gaze of a mastermind psychopath who dreams of creating art through the destruction of real lives.

He has, however, plans to develop a second version of this first installment, which will likely be released as a twoin-one companion with the next book. He has already prepared arrangements to have expert help in bringing out the true shine and value of a a good, solid story that he is preparing for a grow'ing audience. Hopefully it will survive long enough so that a highly original and refreshing dream will not die. */of 4k*/ | DO YOU SPEAK SPANISH?. ;How .would you like to make $3000 ;a month while attending school this PT janitorial positions avail- fall?

In Turkington's struggle to create a company that could survive in a time o! such economic hazard, his book was neglected and published at a relatively embryonic stage of its development. With its unpolished pages, the reading is difficult, sprinkled with nuggets that are good, but barely enough to make it worth pursuing. Turkington expressed that he received little direction/input in the creation of his book, and ,he admitted he should have classifieds help wanted on his new album, Francis incorporates organ and banjo sounds with slow drum beats and a choir of "oohs."
