It was quite enlightening to hear you say that it only took two weeks to write a book! I was once told by a literary agent that I was naive to think I could write a book in two weeks. (Even though he wanted to read the full manuscript!) What I don’t think he realised was the book had been 5 years in the making! Recorded thoughts, illuminations and personal growth experiences and not to mention the 2 years masters degree in Consciousness and Transpersonal Psychology to try and understand my spiritual experiences. But when it was time to write I became the book and the book became me, I lived and breathed it for two weeks working sometimes 14 hours a day. When it was time to be birthed it had to burst forth. I think this is the nearest experience I have had to what athletes call ‘being in the zone’. It just comes freely, you loose all sense of time (I even forgot it was my birthday)and you feel so alive and energised. So thank you for sharing that, maybe I’m not that naieve after all. Beverley

I saw a video clip of Paulo receiving the first copy of one of his finished manuscripts. The moment caught on video was powerful to watch, but I’m sure there are no words to describe the feeling.
