SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Reshape Your Beliefs and Unlock Your True Potential with Nir Eyal
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/157388/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nJoin us on May 19th at 2 PM for an online author discussion. What if the only thing standing between you and the seemingly impossible…was belief? This is the question posed by bestselling author Nir Eyal in his new work\, Beyond Belief. \nMost of your limits aren’t physical. They’re psychological. In Beyond Belief\, Nir Eyal reveals how the hidden assumptions you carry shape what you see\, how you feel\, and what you do—and how to replace them with beliefs that unlock your true potential. \nGrounded in neuroscience\, psychology\, and unforgettable case studies\, Eyal introduces the Three Powers of Belief: Attention\, Anticipation\, and Agency. Mastering these powers transforms how you see challenges\, feel about the future\, and act when it matters most. \nYou’ll learn how to: \n\nSpot hidden opportunities and solutions others overlook.\n\n\nReclaim your mood\, energy\, and confidence by reshaping your beliefs.\n\n\nStay calm\, decisive\, and in control when life feels uncertain.\n\n\nBreak free from beliefs that sabotage your health\, relationships\, and career.\n\n\nPush further\, last longer\, and achieve beyond your limits.\n\nIf you’ve ever quit too soon\, stalled in your career\, or sabotaged your own goals\, this book gives you the science and the system to go further than you thought possible. \nSurgeries without anesthesia. Placebos that heal. Resilience multiplied 240 times longer. Beyond Belief reveals the science behind these breakthroughs and shows why your limits aren’t fixed—they’re learned. And with the right beliefs\, you can achieve breakthrough results. \nRegister now to learn more about how we can unlock our true potential. \nAbout the Author: \nNir Eyal writes\, consults\, and teaches about the intersection of psychology\, technology\, and human potential. He previously taught at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford. He is the author of the international bestsellers Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products and Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life\, which have sold over 1 million copies in more than 30 languages. As an active angel investor\, Nir has backed multi-billion-dollar companies that implement his methodologies\, including Canva\, Kahoot!\, and others. In addition to blogging at NirAndFar.com\, his writing has been featured in The New York Times and Harvard Business Review\, and he is a regular contributor to Psychology Today.

SUMMARY:Thirty-Eight: The Hurricane That Transformed New England
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at Chester Town Hall on Thursday\, May 28th from 7-8:30 PM as we welcome presenter Stephen Long. His talk will focus on the historic hurricane of 1938 that rocked New England and its aftermath. See more details below.\n\nThis presentation is sponsored in part by Vermont Humanities and is held in partnership with the Chester Historical Society.\n\nA hurricane will never surprise us again. But that’s what happened to the people of New England on September 21\, 1938. Without any warning\, the most destructive weather event ever to hit the Northeast pummeled the coast and blasted its way to Vermont and New Hampshire with torrential rain\, flooding\, and sustained winds over 100 miles per hour.\nStephen Long tells the story of New England’s Katrina\, focusing on the devastation to the region’s forests and the daunting challenge facing New Englanders still in the throes of the Great Depression. His presentation is richly illustrated with archival photos of storm damage and the unprecedented recovery operation\, making the storm and its aftermath come alive. A journalist and co-founder of Northern Woodlands magazine\, Stephen Long is the author of Thirty-Eight: The Hurricane that Transformed New England.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Apocalyptic Mayhem\, Lava-Spitting Llamas\, and One Very Sassy Cat: Surviving the Universe’s Most Twisted RPG with Matt Dinniman
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/161929/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nHold onto your heart-patterned boxers! On June 11th at 7 PM Matt Dinniman\, New York Times bestselling author of the wildly popular (and just plain wild) Dungeon Crawler Carl series\, joins us online to chat about his latest book\, A Parade of Horribles. \nAs chaos and mass panic spread outside the dungeon in the wake of Faction Wars\, Carl and Donut find themselves on the tenth floor\, where they’re forced to compete in a surprisingly normal set of tasks. Well\, normal for the dungeon. \nRaces. Get from point A to point B\, and don’t come in last. After each race\, they pick an upgrade for their vehicle and the track gets more challenging. It all seems a little too normal\, a little too simple. \nIgnore those strange glitches that are occurring with increasing frequency. Don’t listen to those whispers about what’s happening on the mysterious eleventh floor\, something the system AI calls A Parade of Horribles. Nobody\, not even the showrunners\, knows what that means. Just that the AI has ominously dubbed it “a coming-out party for the ages.” \nEverything is fine\, Crawler. I repeat\, everything is fine. \nCarl hates that it’s business as usual. The rules of this floor have taken away his agency. That just will not do. \nSo Carl is planning a party of his own. It’s a plan so dangerous\, so insane\, he can’t even consult his friends lest the AI put a stop to it. Because if it goes wrong\, it’s not just the end of Carl and Donut. No. The stakes are higher than they’ve ever been. \nRegister now for a fun-filled discussion you won’t want to miss! \nAbout the Author: \nMatt Dinniman is a writer and artist from Gig Harbor\, Washington. He is the author of the New York Times bestselling Dungeon Crawler Carl series along with several other books about the end of the world. \nHe doesn’t really hate Cocker Spaniels\, and he plays bass in one band.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Nurturing Future Generations: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood with Ted Page
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/162547/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nJoin us on June 18th at 2 PM in virtual conversation with storyteller and popular blogger Ted Page as we chat about his book Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood. This heartfelt book highlights his journey to bring together the stories and wisdom of grandfathers from all walks of life—all with a mission to nurture the next great generation. \nWhen author Ted Page found out he was going to be a grandpa\, he did a web search to learn more about the experience in store for him\, but all he could find were references to the movie Bad Grandpa. He couldn’t help but wonder\, “Where are the good ones?” Page started a blog\, GoodGrandpa.com\, and set out to talk with grandfathers across a diverse spectrum. This included an NFL pro athlete\, a priest\, a rabbi\, an imam\, newsman Tom Brokaw\, comedy legend John Cleese\, Chinese and Indians\, physicians adapting to disability\, an air force general\, a Vietnam combat vet\, and many more—plus his Aunt Lois and the Dalai Lama\, because why not? \nAlong the way\, Page delved into family histories—his own and those of the grandpas he interviewed—to reveal fascinating stories and lessons for living a good life. In every conversation he asked grandpas for their number one most important piece of wisdom—one thing that could help our grandchildren grow to become the greatest generation of all time. Would the collective wisdom Page gathered turn out to be one singular idea\, or a constellation of north stars that illuminate a path toward a better future? A unified and unforgettable picture does in fact emerge. \nGood Grandpa is inspiring\, uplifting\, evocative\, and filled with genuine emotion. It is a recipe of hope for a divided America\, and the book that will be on every grandparent’s reading list. \nRegister today and find out why Ted Page says “our greatest generation is to come.” \nAbout the Author: \nTed Page is a storyteller and performer. He is the author of Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood (Regalo Press) featured on NBC’s The TODAY Show\, NPR and in Forbes Magazine. His nonfiction stories have appeared in Boston Magazine and the Boston Globe Magazine\, and his comedy screen credits include work with John Cleese and Florence Henderson. His blog for grandfathers—GoodGrandpa.com—has been featured in The New York Times. Ted’s book of true family stories\, The Willoughby Chronicles\, was published in 2017. He lives in New England and has a bunch of grandchildren.
