Conversations About Fiction, Consciousness, Creativity & Cultural Change
Warren Goldie is the author of Waking Maya, a metaphysical adventure that turns ideas about collective consciousness, synchronicity, psychic perception, intention, and spiritual awakening into story.
Conversation Topics
Can Fiction Expand Consciousness?
Why story can make spiritual and consciousness ideas emotionally real in a way nonfiction sometimes cannot.
What If Consciousness Is More Than We Think?
Collective consciousness, synchronicity, psychic perception, remote viewing, intention, and the questions that inspired Waking Maya.
Inner Awakening & Cultural Change
Whether personal transformation and larger social change may be more connected than we usually imagine.
Creativity as Discovery
Warren’s experience of writing as a process of finding the story rather than manufacturing it — and learning to let characters and ideas lead.
Meditation, Intuition & the Creative Process
How quieting the mind can affect creativity, perception, problem-solving, and the ability to recognize ideas.
Why Spiritual Ideas Belong in Fiction Too
Turning concepts usually found in spiritual nonfiction into an entertaining adventure readers can experience rather than simply study.

About Waking Maya
What if the ideas you’ve explored in spiritual books were actually true?
When twenty-two-year-old Maya Burke discovers a journal left behind by the father she never knew, it leads her into a hidden world of synchronicity, psychic perception, remote viewing, energy centers, and a secret community convinced that focused human intention can influence the course of history.
Part metaphysical adventure, part mystery, Waking Maya explores the possibility that personal awakening and cultural awakening may not be separate.
