AUTHOR INTERVIEW: DAVID POWERS KING
David Powers King is a fantasy and science fiction author. He has a bachelor’s
degree in behavioral science and is a big fan of zombies and the paranormal. His
first published book, Woven, was co-authored with Michael Jensen and published
in 2015 by Scholastic. His latest book, The Undead Road: My Zombie Summer #1,
came out in January.
Question: Tell us about your book Woven. How did it come to be?
Answer: Woven is a YA adventure about a young man who
dreamed of becoming a knight for his kingdom. He’s close to
his goal when a mysterious stranger kills him. He wakes up as a
ghost, and no one can see him except for a spoiled princess who
wants nothing to do with him. Together they learn of a magic
called fabrication and decide to join forces so they can find a
magic needle that can sew him back to life and mend the world.
Michael and I first met as employees at a mental health hospital.
After Michael told me his idea for this story, we decided to join
forces and write it together. The result is a story we’re both proud of.
Question: What made you decide to start writing?
Answer: My writing journey started in my first year of high school, beginning
with an idea for a science fiction story that just wouldn’t leave me alone. While
waiting for my ride home after swim practice, I pulled out some lined paper and
wrote one of the scenes. I couldn’t stop writing, scene after scene, until I put all
those scenes together into one story. I’ve been writing and coming up with new
stories ever since.
Question: What advice would you give to new writers?
Answer: The best way to start writing is to get on your computer or grab a pad of
paper and start writing. Set writing goals every day, be it a page or 10 pages a day.
Share what you write with family and friends. There are many amazing writing
conferences in Utah that are worth going to, where you’ll learn from published
authors and professionals. But most importantly, dream big and follow that dream.
Question: Tell us a little about your process and habits as a writer.
Answer: For now I write whenever I can, but mostly in the evenings. Sometimes
I like to have a candle burning while I’m writing fantasy. While I was writing The
Undead Road, a young adult zombie novel, I had this strange craving for beef
jerky. I ate lot of it. Creepy, huh? I also enjoy listening to movie and video game
soundtracks while I write. Usually when a new story idea crawls or flashes into my
brain, I will map out an outline with a brief description of each chapter.
Question: What literary world would you most like to be real?
Answer: I would personally love to play the zero gravity battle games inside the
battle school found in the Ender’s Game universe, but I also know I would feel
right at home in the rolling hills of the Shire.
Question: Are you a library user? What are your favorite things about libraries?
Answer: Huge library user here! I love that there are so many amazing stories
to choose from, sometimes in books that are hard to find in the bookstores. It’s
a great place to take my family, too. My kids love checking books out with their
own cards. I occasionally like bringing my laptop to the Orem Library to do some
writing as well.

By Nathan Robison
This April, our community has the privilege of hearing a performance by one of
our nation’s finest pianists and music
educators, Christopher O’Riley. A virtuoso pianist and host of National Public
Radio’s classical music program “From
the Top,” O’Riley lives by Duke Ellington’s observation that there are only two
kinds of music—“the good kind and…the
other kind.” It has become O’Riley’s life
mission to introduce audiences to the first
kind, wherever it may be found.
I learned the value of seeking out quality
music in spite of preconceived notions
one day in the junior high school orchestra
room. As I was putting my violin away, I
overheard two of the older students, bass
players with an anti-establishment streak,
discussing in hushed tones the MTV press
conference in which Courtney Love read
her husband Kurt Cobain’s suicide note.
Having only a vague notion of Cobain’s
band, Nirvana, which to my knowledge
centered on angry guitars, long hair, and
drugs, I was puzzled that they were so
emotionally stricken by the loss of a total
stranger. Why on earth would my fellow
musicians, students of Bach and Dvořák,
be interested in such a musically low-brow
band? What could flannel-clad Nirvana
slackers have on Handel? Why did no one
discuss Mozart’s death in the back corner
by the bass lockers?
I began to notice and pay attention to
Nirvana’s music on the radio. It was
ubiquitous in the early 90s, and initially I
tuned it out. It was raw. It was discordant.
I understood only one lyric in five, and
the few words I could make out made no
sense to me. And yet, I began to realize
this strange, grating music and I shared
some common ground. In spite of not
understanding the words, I understood the
music’s meaning. It expressed something
I was afraid to examine—a nameless frustration I was incapable of communicating,
which included my fear and anxiety about
growing up and my struggle to find an
identity in a rapidly changing world. The
music was about being powerless to do
anything but wait, and I was impatient,
swinging between the unpredictable highs
and lows of life, stuck between childhood
and adulthood.
My discovery of value, meaning, and
personal relevance in a genre of music that
I had previously spurned made me look
anew at the music I played in orchestra
and in my private lessons. I discovered
that many of the themes I identified in
Nirvana’s music were also present in the
music of the classical masters. I was also
surprised to discover the same turbulence
in the lives of my favorite composers as
I saw in the life of Kurt Cobain. Mortality, frustration, failure, and addiction were
etched into the music of Nirvana and
Beethoven alike, along with all the joy,
curiosity, and creativity I admired.
The quest to seek out quality music
wherever it may be found and to share it
with new audiences has been the hallmark
of Christopher O’Riley’s musical career.
His impressive, diverse history includes
