Definition of a BookwrightRecent changes on Insight Timer caused me to rethink, recalibrate and reset over the Summer.

This is partly to prepare for when we can promote subscription offerings via the app and partly to create a second string to my bow should income decrease, it occurred to me that I should resurrect Tom the author’s mentor.

So on the Autumn Equinox, TheBookwright will be reincarnating and I will be launching a much revamped version of my self-study programme for authors. It has most recently been called “How to Channel Your Book” but this updated version will just be what ‘it-says-on-the-tin’ and that’s “Channeling for Authors”.

It will consist of seven ten modules [UPDATED 01/11/24] and take you through a process that I use to allow a book, or any creative writing, to come through me. So you can use it for any writing exercise like a course, a thesis or even a new product or business proposal.

Alongside it, I’ll also be delivering 1-2-1 book, business or personal discovery sessions too.

In itself, it’s a precursor to a body of work I’ll launch in 2025 which will be a school of contemporary alchemy … and an Adytum, a sacred space for the dispensation and dissemination of magick.

In the meantime, the same creative engine is churning away. For example, I’ve created a playlist of my latest free output on the app.

Additionally, I’ve also started a new series mindfully and timefully short #TimefulTasks which will have its own playlist once I have three published. They will be published on each New and Full Moon and you can listen to today’s here.

Soulwaves The DuadexThe serialisation of Soulwaves : A Future History will be complete on the 1st of October. I am in three minds about what to follow it up with. The natural successor woul be Soulwaves : The Duadex of which I have a fifth already written and recorded. Like all authors, a fear surfaces about the missing 4/5ths.

Questions abound like :

  • Am I good enough?
  • Where can I take it?
  • Is the answer is already written in the stars?
  • Does the answer lie in me taking my own course so this book can be unleashed from inside me?
  • Or should I record two non-fiction books that never quite made into audiobooks?
  • Blocks and New Magic for a New Era, is it your time?
  • Will Insight Timer wake up and really support audiobooks?
  • Would not writing The Duadex be a cop out and a convenient “being creatively uncreative” procrastination?

I am sure the answers will emerge by the time the Moon becomes New once more … perhaps the answer is not to choose between the options but to do them all. This leads to another question. Now our new house is complete, is it time to turn up the dial on production to eleven?
