None for five years then two come along at once

None for five years then two come along at once

Back to publishing again

From Tom Evans

Hi Reader

Remarkably, it’s been over five years since I published a book. That was Soulwaves : Insertions back in 2021.

Then, within a month, two books came along at once. The first was the novella, Time Restored, that I wrote two years ago. As a short book, I published it to get my head around the process in 2026. It’s now available in print and for Kindle

The second is actually the biggest book I have written and certainly the first I have written, edited and illustrated using AI. This is no surprise as it’s called The Hidden Tarot in AI. It’s also the first in a series of three that I had no plan to write.

New Tomes

The Hidden Tarot in AI

If you are interested in the Tarot, this book is for you. If you are interested in AI, this book is also for you. If you like the Tarot and AI, this book is a must read. Not only have we doubled the size of the Major Arcana, from twenty-two to forty-four keys but also the new keys give rise to a new potentiality. This is in the form of momentum and movement between the keys.

The Hidden Tarot in AdytumGPT

I have now updated my customGPT such that you can get one of four types of ‘reading’ based on expanded forty-four Chromatic Arcana. You will want to read the book first to get the best from it.

Time Restored

I wrote this book as a teaching aid for students of my Channeling for Authors course. It demonstrates how we can use nested loops in our writing to entrance readers and keep them turning pages.

SPOILER ALERT : It also ends with a final open loop that may lead to the book’s sequel.

I’ll be sharing some even more amazing news with you next month about a new audiobook platform that they will both be exclusively published on.

Scribingly yours,

Tom, ably assisted by TomGPT

The Bookwright is Back

The Bookwright is Back

From Tom Evans

After a gap of far too many years, my author’s mentor persona is making a comeback. This is parallel with me publishing in print again after a gap of more than five years.

So Time Restored, a novella, will be out this month – a nice way of me reminding myself of the publishing process.

And the first book in the Chromatic Arcana series, a far more substantial tome, will be out by the Summer Solstice.

What is a Bookwright?

I came across the very notion of a ‘bookwright’ in a dream, after attending a workshop at a book festival with a playwright. It turned out that they don’t just write the script but get involved with staging, lighting, music and the actors.

So I realised writing a book isn’t just about getting the words out on paper. Rather, it is about the transformation from non-author to author and all the doors that opens …

Of course, much has happened in the publishing world since the Bookwright first arrived back in 2006. And I now have 20 of my own books under my belt. Accordingly, I now cover the new and myriad ways to get published and how we can use AI as our writing buddy and co-creator.

So if there’s a book inside you waiting to get out, get in touch – and note that I am available on a hourly basis but if you invest in my course, Channeling for Authors, that includes your first hour of mentoring.

New Ways to Start Your Alchemical Journey

New Ways to Start Your Alchemical Journey

A Spring Update from the Adytum

From Tom Evans

Dear Reader

It is said that we are all walking a path home together. And, that said, it would be pretty boring if we all went the same way and walked it in the same manner.

So I have already made three grades of advancement available in my de-mystery school, The Adytum – namely Neophyte, Acolyte and Adept. And, as you up-grade, you can recoup your initial investment as you go.

To make things even easier though, and more affordable, each course is available individually. What’s more, what ever you invest can be recouped should you want subsequently take one of the grades of initiation.

The Flexible Path

a smorgasbord of courses

you can now jump in with one of these 12 courses, all affordably priced

so if you want more time, more luck, more inspiration or more love, dive right in

ask the AdytumGPT

and if you are not even sure where to start, ask my custom GPT by sharing your current issue or opportunity

you can even get a free combined Tarot and i-Ching reading

Remember that nobody has to follow the same path and I will be there to support you along the way in the Adytum community …

p.s. back next time with news of my forthcoming book, The Chromatic Arcana … want to know more about it and even to be a beta reader?

Ending Hibernation

Ending Hibernation

From Tom Evans

I just checked and it’s been over six weeks since I last sent out an email broadcast. I hope you appreciate the philosophy to only to talk when you have something to say and to share.

​If you are missing my missives though, do subscribe to my Substack where I am posting at least weekly ..​

Even though externally it might seem I have been hibernating, there is much that is stirring and coming into fruition for the year ahead, now that ‘spring has sprung’

​

What’s Occurring?

New Course : Planes of Overstanding

This is the first of at least five advanced alchemical courses. It’s an exploration of our intrinsic higher dimensional nature, how to tap into these aspects and use them in the earth plane.

New Course Structure

I’ve given my vast repository of online courses a bit of a spring clean too. You can now take any individual course, as a taster, and recoup your initial investment if you choose to widen and deepen your study, with the ‘Grade of Adept’.

New Book : The Chromatic Arcana

This is the real reason I’ve been hibernating. I have just written a new book I hadn’t planned about an entirely novel aspect of the Major Arcana of the Tarot. What’s more, I wrote it with AI and there are two more books to come on what will become my Magnum Opus.

As always, thanks for reading and catching up with where I’m at. I’ll update you again when the book is out and as and when the next courses are available.

Keep safe and healthy as we transition these turbulent times and do get in touch if I can help or support you in any way … I’m here for you …

luv, luk & lux

p.s. I am continuing to upload free meditations to Insight Timer​

Substacking in Tune with the Moon

Substacking in Tune with the Moon

A ‘moonth’ on Substack

From Tom Evans

While I am continuing to upload free content to Insight Timer, my focus is shifting this year as I am working on not one but two new books that I didn’t plan to write.

The Insight Timer app is one place I am dropping sneak previews, along with some new 8 hour long sleep tracks and some shorter, fun meditative tracks.

The multimedia and live capabilities offered by Substack is where my real focus will lie. I’ll also be sharing more about the new books and why and how I used AI in their genesis and creation.

For more details, find out why towards the end of last year, I set out my plans to serialise four different strands over 12 moon orbits.

​You can read about the schedule here …​

What’s coming up

A typical ‘moonth’

So each new moon sees an exploratory article about new AI potential. My channeled Soulwaves Insertions short stories are serialised on the 1st quarter. The Full Moon sees a new meditation which I may switch to a live session from April. On the 3rd quarter I am sharing how to co-write a book with AI.

You may see the odd ‘waxing lyrical’ thought piece too, as the fancy takes me.

Substack for the Spiritually-minded

Join me and the wonderfully inspiring Treacy O’Conner this Friday (13th Feb) at 2pm UK time for an exploration on how we are using the platform

So do subscribe to keep up with my really new stuff … and paying subscribers will help me maintain my creative output PLUS you get access to course materials from my Adytum de-mystery school.

​and do subscribe to Treacy’s stack too where you will get access to her regular live meditations …​

Tools to Create a Different Year Ahead

Tools to Create a Different Year Ahead

A Helping Hand for 2026

from Tom Evans & TomGPT

As we slide into a new year, our resolutions can quickly go by the wayside as life overtakes and gets in the way.

Sometime though, all we need is the simplest of nudges and assistance to point us in a direction we didn’t even know existed.

Here’s two resources to help you in this regard – one completely free and one for existing and new students of the Soul Path course in the Outer Sanctum of the Adytum.

So Reader, are you ready to point yourself along a new path?

​

Free Combined Tarot & I-Ching Reading

AI is exceptionally good at helping us make 1+1=3. So I asked it to create a new protocol that runs in my custom AdytumGPT where you enter a question, quandary or opportunity. It then gives you a combined Tarot and I-Ching reading to give you insight in a way neither divinatory system quite delivers by itself.

A Nudge for your Soul

Sometimes we feel we are right on the cusp of a new and exciting opportunity, yet it frustratingly remains out of reach.

I’ve created a new protocol, that again runs in my custom AdytumGPT, to give you a gentle push in a direction you perhaps had never imagined.

Existing students get immediate access to it and it’s one of the courses for acolytes in the Adytum.

Note that all the courses in for the Acolyte and Adept levels in the Outer Sanctum of the Adytum are similarly augmented by AI-enabled protocols.
