I’m Gerry Visca—a fearless storyteller, creative disruptor, and unapologetically obsessed with Tuscany, risotto, and writing books that leave a mark. While some chase comfort, I chase bold ideas, deep connections, and great wine (preferably a Brunello on a sun-drenched piazza). Once trained in architecture, I traded blueprints for blank pages, building stories instead of skyscrapers.

As a 4-time international award-winning branding expert, I’ve creatively directed 1,000+ campaigns, earned three international awards, and launched a global publication, #whytime MAG, that’s spotli ...more

The Life I Didn't Notice was the result of listening to thousands of women during #whytime - a one on one conversation with their soul.

It's about listening to your soul, acting on the inspired actions that really light you up. When things get challenging, I challenge the discomfort into writing - BLOGS, supporting other writers or international speaking on stage. Everything is connected. Everything is one. (less)

Why Real Books Still Matter

A quiet manifesto in a loud world A quiet manifesto in a loud world In a world that scrolls endlessly, real books ask us to stop . They do not flash. They do not interrupt. They do not beg for attention. They wait. A real book is an act of patience in an age of immediacy. It asks something of us that most modern experiences do not: presence. To open a book is to enter into a contract with stillnes Read more of this blog post »

As an author who loves to weave hints of magical realism into my own work, I am always drawn to writers who understand that the magic is not in spectacle—but in permission.

Rebecca Serle writes this way.
