STANDBY is Now Available
Author and former TV crime reporter Beth McDonough opens up about her memoir Standby — a raw and unfiltered story of her very public downfall and powerful comeback.
After thirty years on television, Beth’s life unraveled in the harshest spotlight: two DUIs, a public firing, and national headlines. What the world saw was her mugshot. What they didn’t see was the fight to get sober, the years of shame and silence, and the strength it took to rebuild her life.
Standby takes readers behind the headlines and into the heart of resilience, sobriety, and redemption. In this video, Beth shares why she wrote the book, what readers can expect, and how her journey can inspire anyone who feels too far gone to start over.

STANDBY
BUCKLE UP! This memoir drops me into the same chaos I used to cover. I chased the story until I became the headline.
This is not my best look, but it's a brutally honest reminder of who I was as an alcoholic. It's what I looked like at my bottom. My mugshot from being arrested.
Without this picture though, the one that captured me at my worst, it has brought out the best of who I am now and why my new forthcoming book STANDBY exists.
​
As I put it in the PROLOGUE I’ve spent my entire adult life telling the stories of other people’s lives. This book describes mine, and it’s incredibly hard to share.
​
BUCKLE UP! This isn’t just a breaking news story, it’s my breakdown. It’s real, it’s rough, and it’s the truth I am finally ready to share.​​​
