Overview

What if presence had a rhythm-and joy was the instrument that found it? When jazz pianist Sarah Jane Cion began exchanging messages with a mysterious friend named Jason-whose bracketed one-liners read like cosmic sheet music-she didn't expect those conversations to reshape her entire way of listening to life. But somewhere between the teaching days, late-night gigs, fasting experiments, and feline interludes-something shifted. A new tempo emerged. The Now Era. Told with warmth, humor, and the musical intuition of a lifelong improviser, The Now Era is part memoir, part meditation, and part love letter to the art of paying attention. Through intimate stories of family, cats, students, rhythm, grief, resilience, and the quiet magic of ordinary days, Sarah invites the reader into a world where: stillness has its own tempo clarity arrives softly, in its own time mistakes swing laughter resets the rhythm and every moment becomes its own kind of music ✨ Inside, you'll find moments of: - creative awakening - teaching breakthroughs - jazz‐infused philosophy - cosmic humor and human tenderness - the subtle alchemy of living a life in tune This isn't a book about becoming perfect. It's a book about becoming present. A companion for artists, seekers, musicians, overthinkers, spiritual wanderers, and anyone who's ever suspected that life is less a straight line and more a song in progress. If it brings joy, it swings. And if you listen closely, you may discover that the rhythm you've been searching for has been keeping time with you all along. Pull up a chair. Pour some tea. Welcome to The Now Era. The Now Era also speaks to readers who love books about the creative life - musicians, artists, writers, and anyone who finds meaning in the quiet space between moments.
