Anyone curious about an upcoming book project of mine (Spoiler! It involves true crime!) can check out my first Author Interview on a book blog hosted by author and book promoter Vinny O’Hare.
I discovered Vinny in my Goodreads Mysteries & Thrillers group, where he helps promote new authors writing in the genre.
As a new author myself on Goodreads, I’m enjoying all the connections the platform offers, including a forum for readers to ask authors questions. That’s right, if you head over to my Goodreads author page, you can pose any question you like, and I’ll do my best to answer it!
Vinny, thanks for the opportunity to share with readers a little bit about myself and my upcoming book Chained Birds: A True Crime Memoir, out 11/12/24 with WildBlue Press!
Carla Conti is a former journalist and the award-winning author of Chained Birds: A Crimemoir. Her true crime debut won multiple 2025 national book awards, including 1st Place in True Crime from the Next Generation Indie Book Awards, Winner in True Crime from the Indie Reader Discovery Awards, Silver in True Crime from the Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY), and a 1st Place Nellie Bly Journalism award from the Chanticleer International Book Awards. Carla is at work on her next true crime book, The Jacklighter, scheduled for release in 2026. She lives in Pennsylvania with her husband, who supports her true crime habit.
