Reader Comments
for The Awakening
“A wonderful story
with lots of twists….the star characters come alive right
before your eyes (you’d almost believe you’d known them for
years…and, come to think of it, perhaps you have), and the
action will give you goose bumps. But, this isn’t just
another ‘Stephen King’ type novel featuring other realms of
existence…there’s something here for everybody…” (Grady
Lusk, Mechanicville, NY)
“A spiritual Wizard
of Oz….A wonderful escape into spirit. I found myself
spending time in Phillip’s world for days after putting the
book down. It makes you want to believe.” (John Holser,
Director and Filmmaker, Sand Lake, NY)
“It appeals to all
levels of education and socioeconomic background. The
‘universal truths’ which are incorporated in the plot are
accurate yet engaging. I recommend this book to anyone
trying to see the ‘bigger picture’.” (Sharon Wheeler,
California)
“Read The
Awakening – an enlightening book that’s the result of a
truly extraordinary story – for some startling (and
heartening) answers.” (Jeff Durstewitz, co-author of
Younger Than That Now: A Shared Passage from the Sixties)
“While this story is
a work of fiction, we can all take a page from it and
remember to trust, use, and develop our intuition.” (Sibyl
Kellman, Galway, NY)
“This book was
incredibly fun and easy to read….extremely entertaining….a
must for anyone who is on a spiritual path learning the “New
Age” concepts of modern day.” (Sandy, Niskayuna, NY)

“Story Behind the Writing of this
Novel”
The Awakening was tremendous fun to write because I
had been writing category romance novels for 15 years and
was finally writing something that fascinated me, something
that I wanted to write. It was also my own personal
awakening into the world of Spirit. I kept having the
strong intuition that I was receiving “help” with the
novel. It didn’t feel like I was really writing the book –
it was writing itself. My plotting consisted of having a
vague notion of where I wanted to go with a chapter then
sitting down to write. It never came out the way I thought
it would but was better than I could have hoped for,
requiring almost no editing. Readers have commented that
the book weaves together like a tightly plotted tapestry.
Strange, considering I didn’t plot a single chapter!
Then, an even more bizarre thing happened. I was about
one-third of the way through the first draft when I was
guided to a spiritual bookstore.
So, here I am in a bookstore and two women are channeling
messages from Archangel Michael about my book:
“You must write this book. Put small things aside and
write quickly. You are receiving help. This book will be a
voice to the world….”
Huh?! Little ol’ me is supposed to be a voice to the
world? Yikes, heavy responsibility. Yet, once I accepted
the responsibility (for me, it took all of about an hour), I
knew this was my path. I wrote The Awakening in
only nine months, while working a busy job and raising two
active teenagers. I also read every book I could find
on spontaneous healings, past-life regression hypnosis, our
higher self, Indigo Children, ascension and all the other
‘new age’ concepts.
My life became very
strange. I began to experience events I couldn’t explain –
like visiting other dimensions in my sleep, odd teachings in
my dreams, enhanced intuitive abilities, a knowingness about
the ‘big picture’, and messages of dark forces that would
try to stop my work. Doors opened up for me whenever I
pursued my path, and I knew this was meant to be. My heart
was singing and my entire outlook on life changed.
I hope you, too, will experience your own spiritual
awakening after reading this book.
Love and angel hugs,
Kathryn Diamond
