Who
is Chariss K. Walker?
Chariss K Walker, B. Msc.,
M. Div., writes both fiction and nonfiction books that share
metaphysical insight... what some would call paranormal occurrences.
Chariss has said that each
step she's taken in life has led to this very moment. She encourages others
to understand that each experience, whether considered a blessing or a
mistake, was the right choice to make at that time. She says, "It’s the
reconciliation and acceptance of the choices we’ve made that turn those
experiences from fear to love." Chariss has many life lessons to share
through her writings.
A lifelong student, she’s
studied religion and metaphysics extensively for many years through seminars,
e-courses, home-study courses, self-help books, and earning educational
degrees (Bachelors of Metaphysical Sciences and Masters of Divinity). She’s
been known to read two and three books at once in a quest to understand and
share with others what she’s learned. However, her real qualifications matter
more: life experiences, true insight, and helping others. In 2001, Chariss
completed the highest degree attainable as Reiki Master/Teacher. She shares
metaphysical and esoteric concepts studied for over thirty years in both
nonfiction and fiction writings.
Why
a writer?
Chariss began reading and
writing even before her formal education began. She says, “The words simply
made sense to me. I always knew I would become a published author, but the
dream wasn't realized until 2008. Life kept getting in the way.”
Book
Genres?
“I’ve written about
everything…usually the stuff no one wants to talk about. The stuff that isn’t
considered polite conversation, such as abuse, rape, incest, death and grief.
The dark and dirty secrets that families keep hidden make my writings dark,
very dark. My favorite fiction genres include crime, thriller, paranormal. My
favorite nonfiction genres are centered around inspirational and personal
growth topics in body, mind, and spirit. Because I'm a wounded healer, I
accept the dichotomy, allowing me to write both easily.”
You might find it strange
for an author to write such a mixture, but her fiction book characters have
superhuman/supernatural/paranormal abilities and gifts. The knowledge about
these aspects comes from the study of all things "metaphysical," a
category that can't be explained by science. For example, there really are
"auras" and "chakras" and some people can see them.
People do dream "dreams" that come true. “Child-eyes” is a very
real state of being. Although her nonfiction books discuss these topics, her
fiction books are also filled with insight. Some characters listen to their
inner voice, some see visions, some receive messages, and some experience
spiritual transformation.
There are more things in
heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. ~~ Hamlet
