Bill Beatty

Bill Beatty is a first-time novelist who spent years as a ghostwriter, blogger, and PR professional—basically, making other people's agendas sound reasonable for money. Turns out understanding how to manipulate narratives is excellent preparation for writing about a world where the propagandists win. Utopia's Wake asks a simple question: what happens when the people who know how to rewrite reality decide to rebuild society in their image? The surveillance states and information warfare in these pages aren't speculation—they're pattern recognition with a body count. When he's not writing fiction, he deconstructs power and spin on his website Billinformed, where he untangles the games of politics, Big Tech, and the strings nobody's supposed to see.
