Author Interview
of Courage Passion Wisdom and Grace by Jon Von Knight
About the
book:
A true story of friendship and the discovery of a
powerful, spiritual gift.
Join Sharon and Jack on a
soul-awakening journey that transcends our Earthly realm through an ever
widening gap in the veil between worlds.
Sharon is an earthbound Angel
working in this world and beyond to raise our collective vibration one soul at
a time. She uses her gift to help people find their true purpose and fall in
love with life again.
Fear has no place in a world
that only knows love.
Jack is her best friend,
confidant and tether to this world.
The happiness and heartache Sharon experiences are
relatable to anyone’s life. But two things set her apart, the sensitive heart
of an Empath and her ability to communicate with the other side.
She soon finds one thing is
true on both sides. Light cannot exist without darkness. For someone with
Sharon’s extra sensory abilities “darkness” can take a heavy emotional toll. As
she comes to terms with this reality she is left to wonder if the pain she
struggles with is worth all the good she can do in this world.
Jack’s constant support keeps
Sharon grounded. His openness to this new reality transforms his life and he
begins to see how truly limitless we all are.
Part One of Courage Passion Wisdom and Grace is an
introduction to the remarkable true story of one woman's beginnings, and
ultimate acceptance, of her role as an Angel on earth during a shifting of the
ages. This transformative story will help every living being realize their
capacity to do one simple thing – Love your Self.
About the
Author:
Jon Von Knight is one of the billions of energetic
beings who chose to be here on this beautiful planet earth during these
unprecedented times. It took a little while – about 40 years – but now he
now remembers why. Before he was born into this physical world, he
must have agreed to be a messenger of sorts for what he learns he wishes
to share. He is an artist and an author. His writings come from the
heart and are inspired by the people he loves, the universe and Gaia, the soul
of the planet of abundance we all call home. He believes that scarcity is
a myth created by greed. When that myth is busted peace will prevail. He
studies sacred geometry and is drawn to the hidden history and the ancient
mysteries of this world and beyond. He is the author of Courage, Passion,
Wisdom and Grace. A series based on the incredible true story of his lifelong
friend Sharon’s struggle to come to terms with her powerful spiritual
gift. The uplifting message she is here to deliver contains the keys to
thriving during our shift to the new world. At the same time you'll
see the author embark on a soul- awakening journey of his own. He is
transformed by the story itself, a story that would not exist without the
strong mutual love and trust between Jon and Sharon. For all of this he is
forever grateful. And so, another glorious journey begins.

1. What inspired you to write the book?
Inspiration for this book came from many places.
First and foremost from my best friend Sharon and her many spiritual gifts. She
is an Angel on Earth with the ability to cross between worlds (not always an
easy life). I have been her confidant from the very beginning of this
remarkable journey.
I was also unknowingly inspired by my own spirit
guides. It was through the telling of this story that I discovered their soft
voice in my ear. It’s their voice that guides me and drives me to seek and
share the truths of our world.
And that’s the final inspiration – sharing the truth
of who we all are. Everyone has the answers inside of them. There is a great
quote that says “The best teachers show you where to look but don’t tell you
what to see.” Angels like Sharon are here to show us where to look. It’s up to
us to see.
2. When did you realise that you want to
write a book?
In 2010. I was working as an engineer for an
international corporation. I had had enough of the politics that come with
giant organizations and I knew I would be leaving soon. But the nature of the
job gave me a lot of time to research everything from Angels and consciousness
to sacred geometry and the truth about 2012 and the mayan calender.
One day a casual conversation with Sharon led to her
consulting with her spirit guides and sealed the deal. They confirmed my
direction and I started writing Courage Passion Wisdom and Grace a few days
later.
3. Who helped you in writing the book and
please say about their contributions?
Again, I have to give credit to Sharon for being the
ultimate consultant in helping me give everyone a peek at what its like when an
Angel crosses over. The experiences we discuss are so detailed, I almost feel
as if I was there myself. I hope that feeling shines through for the readers as
well.
In addition I had a great editor. She intuitively
knew the story I was trying to tell and made some very insightful suggestions
along the way. I am very grateful for all of her help.
4. How is your book going to inspire the
readers?
A good story, whether it be a song, a book or a
movie has multiple meanings. How it is percieved depends on who is perceiving
it. It is my hope that this story inspires readers to love themselves first and
watch how everything falls into place after that. However, there are other
messages open to the individual souls interpretation. Like a movie you’ve
watched more than once, you know the story well but the second or third time
you watch it you may start to pick up some of the deeper meanings and messages.
5. If you are given the chance to change
one thing in your book what would it be?
This is the first book I’ve ever written. So, other
than the fact that I feel I am a better writer now I don’t think I would change
anything. Don’t get me wrong, there were countless changes made in the process
of writing the book. I think there were 3 major revisions during my back and
forth with the editor. I recently found the original outline I wrote 5 years
ago. It bares a vague resemblance to the final version but that’s it. It’s
interesting to see how things evolved.
6. How do you find time to write and which
part of the day is best for writing for you?
When you are passionate about something you find the
time to fit it into your life no matter how busy you are. In the beginning I
was writing at night and revising during the day. It became a joke with my
colleagues at work that I was using “company” time to write my book. I have
since quit that job and I find I am most creative in the early morning.
7. Which books have inspired you the most,
in the journey of writing this book?
There are many but the first one that comes to mind
is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. A few others are Fallen Masters by John
Edward and a couple of the Anastasia books by Vladimir Megre. I also enjoy
reading Gregg Braden. Right now I am reading The Ancient Secret of the flower
of Life Part II by Drunvalo Melchizedek.
8. What is the best advice, you would give
for writers who are trying to write a book?
Write as often as you can and have a space that is
dedicated to your work. Surround that space with inspiration. I keep crystals
and a goose feather on my desk. The feather was “gifted” to me by a local flock
of geese. It symbolizes writing. Authors used to use them as quills because
they held a lot of ink. Most importantly, write from your heart and soul and
the reader will feel it. That’s when you make a connection with them.
9. What are your hobbies?
I love the great outdoors. Spending time in nature
is the best way to recharge. I like to hike, paddleboard and ride motorcycles.
All of which I havent had much time to do since I quit my day job. But I’m
working on that. We all need down time to fuel our creations.
10. What can we expect from you in the
future?
Early on in the writing of Courage Passion Wisdom
and Grace it became apparent that the story would have to continue. Just as the
great shift in consciousness continues. We are living through a change in the
ages. Poised for the next step in our evolution. These are exciting times and
whether we know it or not we all chose to be here now to help each other and our
beautiful Mother Earth ascend to a higher realm.
I have already started outlining Courage Passion
Wisdom and Grace, Part II. I can’t wait to see how many changes I make to this
one before it’s done.
