SLMS Presents Author and Coast Union Graduate Devik Schreiner

sjackson — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 22:01:13 +0000

One of our own returns to Cambria – Author Devik Schreiner will visit Santa Lucia Middle School on Friday, March 30 to provide an interactive presentation in the language classrooms. Devik is the author of Search a Darker Sky: A Cleft Mind, a rapid-fire psychological journey that propels a young boy through adolescence. The 6^th graders read his novel in class and were surprised to learn the author grew up in Cambria and attended their middle school.

While a student at Santa Lucia Middle School, he wrote a play, “Operation Pineapple,” which was performed by the Cuesta College Drama Department. Devik graduated from Coast Union in 1984, attended Cuesta College, San Diego State University, and now teaches sixth grade English in San Jose. He lives in Los Gatos, California with his wife and twin ten-year-old girls. The students at Santa Lucia eagerly await his second novel, “Oregon Story,” the prequel to “A Cleft Mind,” which is due out in late 2012.

The public is invited to a reception to meet Mr. Schriener on March 30, from 3:00 – 3:30 p.m., in the Santa Lucia Middle School library where signed copies of his book will be available for purchase.
