Meet Author Carla McBeath

Opens pathways to distinguish reality from propaganda

Carla McBeath’s second book breaks through an insidious obstacle: manipulative influences all around us, molding and shaping our choices outside our conscious awareness. In this book, Carla presents insights gained over her lifetime and opens pathways to distinguish reality from propaganda. Your Will and Your Win: Rescuing Your Human Will from Popular Culture and Finding Your Win (Vertigo Interactive LLC, 2024). Carla lives in New York City with her husband and, other than writing, loves baroque music, learning world languages and cooking. Carla is creating a You Tube channel based on the book, and is working on an epic fantasy book, Book One of a series, based on a short story she wrote years ago. She can be reached through the publisher at support@vertigoint.com

What are the influences all around you that stop you from thinking and doing what you want?

What powerful force do you have at hand and how can you use it?

The world has changed. Working “hard”, eight hours a day, to lead to a better life no longer is effective. Why do we keep pursuing a lifestyle that no longer works for us?

December #MeetNewAuthors #FindNewBooks Event

#meetnewauthors #findnewbooks

The winter months are a form of quiet blessing, a rare permission from the world to draw inwards, become small, and enjoy a hibernation of spirit.

The evenings are dark, the streetlights outside jaundiced and unreal, and cold air rides in on every gust. We build our own warmth, pieced together from the pleasures of thick socks, a hot mug of chocolate with whipped cream, and the familiar weight of a hardcover book resting on our knees.

There is an art in this ritual of stacking blankets just so, the deliberate choosing of which unread novel to begin, and the slow, luxurious collapse onto the couch.

When the radiators groan to life, and the city’s background noise dulls beneath the snow, these are the most cherished hours, finding in them a small but vital resistance to the disorder of the outside world.

We draw the blanket over our legs, inhale the unmistakable scent of a new book, and then exhale slowly, and open the book to its first page.

Starting December 1st, every day a new author and one of their books will be introduced to you. Bookmark this blog, you might find a few gems to last you for the long winter months. Happy reading!
