Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Who am I? Yes, this was a tough question for me a big part of my live. Who am I and what am I doing on earth? What do I need to do in this crazy world? After a big journey, what you also will find in my book is how I found my true self and became who I am today.
I am that I am, and I am here to enjoy existence in this human body, to be on Earth and to experience a good lifetime while realizing my enlightenment. I have realized that I am enjoying life on this beautiful Earth which is also indeed a disruptive creation.
For example, I quit my job when I turned 20. I did it cause it simply felt wrong to spend my life behind a desk and under the orders of someone who called himself my boss.
After quitting my job, my girlfriend and I decided to get married and start a family. We lived almost 4 years together until we felt it was time to make being human more exciting. Thus, a lovely daughter came along on Earth to join us in our journey and a since a couple months our family is complete when our little son has born.
Nowadays I travel fulltime I love to discover new parts of the world where my human body has never been before in this lifetime. I travel with my family and spend as much time with them as I can. Also, I like to have my own time to spend some time alone in nature or just to be with myself.
To entertain my human self, I have started a few businesses in order to play and see what happens when I allow myself to write and share all my experiences. A big part of my life now is allowing, going with the flow of life, and just being in the moment.
It is all about being free and doing whatever I want to do whenever I want to do it. This is how I live and this is how you should live from this day on.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my first an only book up until now is ‘The Journey of an Ascended Master named Kiora Amo – From birth to ascension’ . The inspiration came when I was at an seminar in Hawaii. The one who was talking named the words Ascended Master and he was looking at me, I knew the title of my book, it came in so clear. My human had first some resistance against that term, but when I went into the writing of my book it came back time over time. The rest of the name is inspired by the story about the road into enlightenment and the name Kiora Amo is taken to let myself be free to write about someone else instead of myself. So I could write without holding back about my own experiences.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Yes I do, I am writing in the third person about myself. Sounds crazy but I had to tell a story about myself and I felt this would be the most interested to read. Writing all the time about yourself and using I all the time, thats boring. I off course I write form the I perspective, between the story line, I I share stories what I thought, felt and experienced in that specific moment.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Although I never was really I reader, I had troubles with reading and writing even in my native language what isn’t english. I have read a few books and the one who truly influenced me where; Energy speaks form Lee harris, Act of consciousness from Adamus St. Germain channeled by Geoffrey Hoppe, Losing My Virginity form Richard Brandson.
What are you working on now?
I am working on my Youtube channel, I am sharing all the knowledge I have grained during my hell of a ride into finding my true self. Sharing whatever tools I used and all the how to’s I can offer for free ? you can check it out here if you like, https://www.youtube.com/c/MauriceKokCreation
Besides this I started with the follow up on my first book putting some bullet points on paper and I will write my book at the end of 2017.
Also I am working on some new video courses who I will record on some cool places around the world. For this I am going to take topics like Freedom, Wealth and Creation
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I am doing where I flow to, It can be running into your site or speaking with a friend who is making a documentary and I am joining them with my knowledge and sharing this in a interview. So it is not just one way, it is a varies of many things I bump in to or love to do like YouTube.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Yes off course, follow your heart and if you have an idea of how you would love to write, do it. The less you know about others and the more you listen to your way and true self, the more authentic your book will become. You write this book for yourself and for the experience.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Follow your heart and start living in the now moment. That is the only thing that count.
What are you reading now?
Becoming Sar’H by Lauren Hutton
What’s next for you as a writer?
Like I said before I’m going to make the following up on my first book. After this, I have no idea yet. Everything can change 100 time until that time will be there. And at the same time I feel that I would like to write a songtekst, so maybe I will pick this up also..
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
You can ask the question a little bit different, when I will be on my own Island which books do I bring. For now that would be ‘Whatever Arises, Love That: A Love Revolution That Begins with You from Matt Kahn’ , ‘The Completion Process: The Practice of Putting Yourself Back Together Again from Teal Swan’ and ‘The Leap: The Psychology of Spiritual Awakening from Eckhart Tolle.
