Black Earth, WI, May 08, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Fulton Books author Karen Thiel has completed her most recent book, “It’ll Be Alright, Maggie Jiggs”: a compelling and stirring memoir that reflects upon the heartache and losses felt by the author over the years as she cared for her family members, and the profound impact her mother’s death had over her.

Having been born and raised in a small town, and with relatives constantly coming over to spend time together, family values were instilled in author Karen Thiel early on in her life. Her life growing up, along with her siblings, taught many life lessons for their young minds while learning to care for their baby brother. After the loss of her dad, Thiel helped care for her grandparents alongside her mom until their loss was felt. Not long after that, with the support of her siblings, she and her mother decided to combine everything under one roof and start the next chapter of life. As time went on, Thiel’s mother’s health started to slowly fade. Losing someone so close and trying to understand the emotions that went with the loss, she began to realize what grief truly meant. The caregiving saga continues today as she, with the help of her siblings, proudly cares for her baby brother.

Thiel shares, “‘It’ll be all right,’ was Mom’s phrase. And of course, she was usually right, but we wouldn’t admit it to her. We grew up not thinking about what will come later in our lives. Mom and Dad made things as easy as they could for us. Then it hits you. Will I go to college? What kind of a career do I want? Maybe marriage and the start of a family. Will the marriage last? How do I raise my kids to be responsible people? You turn to your parents for advice, and the first thing they tell you is that it’ll be all right.

“My parents taught us to be kind. Taught us the meaning of respect. Taught us to believe that just maybe we could be or do anything we wanted. They taught us to always care.

“I just never dreamed the word care would one day be connected to the word giver. I never thought the most rewarding job of my life would be caregiving. Especially for my family. Mom always said, no matter the situation being good or bad, happy or sad…it’ll be all right. No truer words were spoken, Mom. I can’t begin to explain to anyone the profound emptiness and loss I feel every second of every day because my partner in crime, our little stick of dynamite, my very best friend, my mom is no longer here by my side. But don’t worry, Mom, I was listening. You taught your lesson well and you’re right…everything will be all right.”

Published by Fulton Books, Karen Thiel’s book is a deeply personal story that initially began as an outlet to help the author cope with the challenges that life presented her. Bearing her very soul within the pages of her book, Thiel shares her story in the hopes that her readers will discover the ultimate truth that one’s actions and decisions make up one’s life and the impact one can leave behind on the world.

Readers who wish to experience this enlightening work can purchase “It’ll Be Alright, Maggie Jiggs” online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon, Author Ruby Dosanjh has released, expanding a growing body of atmospheric, introspective fiction. The titles — Likewise and Otherwise — explore the quiet emotional shifts that happen between two people who are paying attention.

The first release, Likewise, is a story about subtlety and mirrored feeling. It follows the second meeting that changes the first, the presence that fits too perfectly, and the kind of recognition that arrives without language. Described as “a quiet echo,” the book offers a soft, atmospheric experience for readers who sense emotional shifts before they can name them. Some connections linger — not because they’re forced to, but because they belong.

The second paperback, Otherwise, moves into deeper territory. It traces the moment reflection becomes truth, when two people think of each other without stopping and without softening it into something smaller. What begins as quiet awareness grows into something unmistakable — familiar, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Otherwise follows the slow, honest shift from noticing to knowing, and the quiet courage it takes to stop pretending nothing is happening.

Together, the releases mark a clear evolution in Ruby Dosanjh’s one‑word consciousness series — stories that move gently, speak quietly, and leave a lasting imprint. Both paperbacks are now available worldwide on Amazon.

Sebastian Clark has released "How To Read People Like A Book: The Subtle Art of How to Analyze People and Speed-Reading to decode Body Language, Intentions, Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviors, and Connect Effortlessly!", first published in 2022, according to an announcement received by Studio CarryOnHarry.

The book lands in a crowded shelf of nonverbal-communication guides. Its own marketing places it alongside Allan and Barbara Pease’s "The Definitive Book of Body Language," Joe Navarro’s "What Every BODY is Saying," and Thomas Erikson’s "Surrounded by Idiots" — three long-running titles that have anchored the popular body-language genre for years. Clark’s book positions itself as a newer entry covering similar ground: understanding facial expressions, gestures, posture, and vocal tone to reveal someone’s actual thoughts.

According to the announcement, the book walks through strategies applicable across various contexts including professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections — with the stated aim of helping readers spot emotions and intentions that go unspoken. Listed topics include facial expression and gesture analysis, context-specific body language decoding, interpreting non-verbal communication, reading vocal cues for emotional undertone, and trusting intuitive reads of subtle signals. The work is categorized within social science studies.

No further biographical detail on Clark accompanied the announcement, and independent listings for the title largely repeat the same publisher description rather than adding new information about the author or the book’s reception since 2022.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we’re interested in whether books like Clark’s deliver on their practical promise. The appeal of body-language guides lies less in theory and more in real-world application—the job interview where you’re trying to gauge whether the hiring manager is genuinely interested, the first date where mixed signals leave you uncertain, the negotiation where knowing if the other party is bluffing matters financially. Clark’s positioning across "professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections" suggests he’s aware readers want transferable skills, not just academic frameworks. The question worth asking: does his approach to vocal cues, facial analysis, and contextual interpretation actually equip readers to make better decisions in these high-stakes moments? Or does it risk reinforcing the confidence-without-accuracy trap that plagues intuitive people-reading? For readers considering this purchase, the gap between what body language can reliably tell us and what we wish it could tell us deserves scrutiny.
