Hi! My name is... Daria Hilton
I write about the messy, magical business of being human. My work explores spiritual awakening, our connection to the natural world, and the unexpected places we find meaning, usually with a healthy dose of irreverence.
I love to hear from my readers! Drop me a line anytime at: Daria@dariahilton.com
Featured in Ayahuasca for the Soul
I’m delighted to be a contributor in Jack Canfield’s new anthology, Ayahuasca for the Soul. My essay, “I Haven’t Had a Migraine Since,” recounts my first experience with ayahuasca, an encounter I approached with considerable skepticism and left with a very different understanding of healing, connection, and the radical gift of being alive.
Hungry Crow Babies
Can conscious crows connect with a carefree rogue?
A workaday bystander to the city’s vibrant counterculture, Morrigan comfortably navigates the kaleidoscopic landscape of casual sex, drugs, alcohol and promise that define San Francisco in the late 1990s. The endless shenanigans, however, leave her ill prepared for life’s inevitable curveballs, the most troubling of which being her supposed connection to crows. Unnerved by their paradigm-bending intelligence, Morrigan falls headlong into an alternate reality when the crows start talking to her. The wild ride’s psychedelic and subtle revelations push her past the point of no return, but perhaps this is a good thing.
Praise for Hungry Crow Babies
"Here is a midlife coming-of-age novel by one of our own that will make you laugh and cry."
Susa Silvermarie, Poet
"There is so much meaning and information packed into each sentence. The synapses in your brain literally get rewired via the symbolic forces of metaphor woven therein."
Stacy Hunter
