SILENT TALKING My Kundalini Nightmare: My Memoir of Being Supernaturally Forced to Service: Channeling Entities in an Occult Sex Cult
Posted by Literary Titan

Sometimes, even after a person escapes a horrific ordeal, silence still hangs over what happened. That silence can shape identity as surely as the experience itself. Speaking out may offer a path back to agency. Fear often stands in the way. Yet people are resilient. When conviction finally rises, a voice can return. This is one of those stories. And it feels, unmistakably, like a case where truth is stranger than fiction.
Silent Talking, My Kundalini Nightmare: My Memoir of Being Supernaturally Forced to Service: Channeling Entities in an Occult Sex Cult by Adria Chalfin is a chilling first-person memoir. Brief in length but striking in impact, it recounts formative experiences from the author’s life that unfolded several decades ago.
Chalfin describes beginning her adult life as a sexual being and finding that experience deeply unfulfilling. That dissatisfaction led her into the orbit of a captivating woman she met in Los Angeles in 1984. An aspiring filmmaker and writer, this woman was drawn to practices that can best be described as sexually sadistic. Chalfin became involved with her and, at first, believed she was discovering a deeper dimension of her own sexuality. The relationship seemed to promise insight, intensity, and understanding.
The opening sections of the memoir contain vivid, unsettling descriptions not only of the physical acts Chalfin was compelled to endure, but also of the psychological manipulation that surrounded them. Under the influence of a woman she believed to be her friend, Chalfin came to think she was channeling entities that overtook her body and left her trapped in a state of paralysis.
As the memoir progresses, it explains how she ultimately freed herself. Because the account is told firsthand, the experience feels immediate and deeply harrowing. What emerges is more than a story of suffering. It is a compelling portrait of how the search for selfhood can veer into dangerous territory and become profoundly toxic. At the same time, it stands as a cautionary tale and a testament to the extraordinary endurance of the human spirit.
Silent Talking is both disturbing and compelling, not simply because of the experiences it recounts, but because of the courage it takes to recount them at all. Chalfin’s memoir offers a haunting look at manipulation, vulnerability, and survival, while also underscoring the strength required to reclaim one’s voice after profound trauma. It leaves the reader unsettled, reflective, and keenly aware of how easily the search for meaning and connection can be twisted into something deeply destructive. As a personal testimony and a warning, the book is powerful, sobering, and difficult to forget.

The Adamantine Jewel follows a university professor and former U.S. Marine who, with the help of his daughter, tries to track down a mythical healing stone to save humanity from a flesh-eating virus. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?
The inspiration for my story came from a dream I had over fifteen years ago. I wrote the first twenty pages within a few weeks, but as life got busy, the project was put on hold. It stayed on the shelf until last year when I discovered NaNoWriMo.org, a writers’ resource. I decided to take on their 55,000-word challenge—to write 55,000 words in one month. I succeeded, and that’s how my novel was born.
David and April are intriguing characters with great emotional depth. What emotional and moral guidelines did you follow when developing them?
David believes in the inherent goodness of all people, though he acknowledges that some make poor choices in life. He is compassionate and non-judgmental, firmly believing in second chances and embodying unconditional love for all living beings. With unwavering faith and hope for a brighter future for humanity, David exemplifies the archetype of the peaceful warrior—kind and forgiving, yet resolute. He possesses the strength and skills needed to protect his family and friends when it matters most.
April, on the other hand, is on a quest for meaning and purpose, struggling to define her identity and place in the world while battling a life-threatening illness. Despite her challenges, she maintains a good sense of humor and discovers a profound spiritual connection with the universal goddess energy, or divine feminine. She faces her impending death with remarkable courage and fortitude.
What were some themes that were important for you to explore in this book?
One theme I explore is the interplay of the past, present, and future. The past is represented by a prophecy rooted in an 18,000-year-old religion. The present follows the journey of David and April, including an epic battle of good versus evil. The future envisions transformative initiatives for spiritually focused individuals on Earth.
Another theme I delve into is the mythic archetypal structure of the Hero’s Journey—and the Heroine’s Journey—that mythologist Joseph Campbell is renowned for. Both David and April are living their ordinary lives when they are suddenly thrust into a life-or-death quest. Through their struggles to fulfill this quest, they embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
Where does the story go in the next book, and where do you see it going in the future?
April grows and matures as a woman, with a budding romance on the horizon, a deeper understanding of her role in the world, and her mission as a divine world spirit healer. Meanwhile, David collaborates with world leaders to address the issue of homelessness, assumes his role as Earth’s representative in working with advanced civilizations within the Galactic Federation Council, and expands his mystical understanding of universal truths.
New characters are introduced, enriching the narrative, while existing characters develop deeper and more meaningful relationships. The upcoming twelve metaphysical supernatural novels in The David Thoreau Adventure Series further explore the visionary themes introduced in this first installment. These visionary initiatives aim to guide humanity toward becoming a spiritually evolved, space-faring civilization.

Their journey thrusts them into a life-or-death race to India, where their only hope lies in a rare, miraculous healing herb. As time slips away, every second counts, and failure means the end. But fate deals a cruel blow when their flight crashes in the treacherous Himalayan Mountains of Tibet.
What follows is an epic saga of survival, love, and redemption. Together, David and April confront their deepest fears and battle formidable adversaries. With each passing moment, the countdown to her demise draws closer. Guided by allies and aided by supernatural forces in the mystical “Land of the Gods,” they are destined to undertake a perilous quest to fulfill an ancient prophecy that only they can complete.
With time running out, their love and courage will be tested beyond anything they’ve ever known. In a battle where life, death, and the supernatural collide, they will discover that some destinies are forged in the crucible of the impossible—where a father’s devotion and a daughter’s courage shatter the very limits of time, space, and even death.

The Adamantine Jewel
Posted by Literary Titan

The Adamantine Jewel by Jeffrey Scott Pears is a thrilling supernatural adventure that sweeps readers into a world balancing on the brink of catastrophe. When an unstoppable, flesh-eating virus threatens humanity with extinction, David Thoreau, a university professor and former U.S. Marine, races against time alongside his brave eighteen-year-old daughter, April. Their mission? To track down a mythical healing stone known as the Adamantine Jewel. The stakes are impossibly high, and the journey is nothing short of epic, involving dangerous conspiracies, mystical forces, and the wisdom of ancient cultures.
The writing in The Adamantine Jewel is a mixed bag. There are moments of taut, breathless action where the prose shines. It grabs you and doesn’t let go, mixing humor with suspense. Yet, there are times when the narrative feels overly descriptive, bogging down scenes that would otherwise fly by. David’s philosophical musings, while intellectually intriguing, sometimes pull away from the story’s tension, making me wish the author would just get back to the action. Nevertheless, these reflective pauses do add a layer of depth, even if they occasionally feel misplaced. Character dynamics are where Jeffrey Scott Pears really excels. David’s relationship with April is authentic, heartwarming, and bittersweet. You can feel the weight of their shared grief over the loss of April’s mother, making their banter and mutual support all the more touching. Some secondary characters, like Serenity Adler, felt underdeveloped despite the potential for complexity. I wanted more from her, especially given her sudden departure to India and the emotional stirrings she awakens in David. The book’s plot brims with intrigue and cinematic energy. From high-speed chases through West Hollywood to the mounting horror of a global pandemic, the stakes are palpable. Pears does a fantastic job weaving real-world fears with mystical elements. The sudden, brutal encounter with the CDC authorities at David’s home made my heart pound, while the philosophical lecture on death during his university class left me contemplative. Yet, I couldn’t help but feel that the pacing wavered in some areas. The narrative jumps from action-packed scenes to quieter moments without always maintaining momentum, leaving me both exhilarated and occasionally restless.
The Adamantine Jewel is a gripping ride that delivers on suspense, family drama, and metaphysical reflection. It’s perfect for readers who enjoy thrillers with a spiritual twist, especially those curious about ancient cultures and myths. If you’re looking for a thoughtful adventure that keeps you thinking while keeping you on edge, this book is worth the read.
