Author Emmanuel Williams’s New Book, “Blueberries and Basketball,” is a Poignant Tale on the Importance of Eating Healthy in Order to Maintain an Athlete’s Energy
Grand Forks AFB, ND, April 26, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Emmanuel Williams, a native of Trio, South Carolina, has completed his new book, “Blueberries and Basketball”: a charming tale that centers around two friends, Xavier and Kaleb, who both love playing basketball but have vastly different eating habits. With the help of Xavier, Kaleb learns the importance of eating healthy, and the benefits that fresh fruits and vegetables can have for young athletes in keeping their energy up through games.
A devout believer in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Emmanuel “Squirrel” Williams is a loving husband, father, Military Chaplain, and lover of blueberries and basketball. He is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and Dallas Theological Seminary, and he seeks to inspire others to follow Jesus, eat healthy, and enjoy the competitive nature of sports.
Growing up, Emmanuel Williams was taught at an early age that healthy eating was imperative to daily human life, but especially to athletes. As a high school athlete, Emmanuel noticed that when he ate burgers, candy, sodas, and fried foods before his games, his energy level was lower during and after the game. With much advice from his mother, Priscilla, Emmanuel used natural things such as honey and fruits to replace the desire for unhealthy sweets and started a new journey toward a healthy eating lifestyle.
Emmanuel had a strong desire to eat cookies, cake, pies, etc. because of its comforting delicacies. However, when he began to see that he needed to discipline himself for a healthy lifestyle going forward, he began researching and asking questions about the best types of eating practices. After going to college and wanting to help the next generation, “Blueberries and Basketball” was born.
Published by Page Publishing, Emmanuel Williams’s enlightening tale is inspired by the author’s love for basketball and healthy eating, as well as the need to inspire young athletes on the importance of healthy eating practices and choices. With colorful artwork to help illustrate Emmanuel’s tale, “Blueberries and Basketball” will help to change the narrative of young children around the world that eating healthy is not just for adults and professional athletes, but also for people of all ages, athletes or not.
Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase “Blueberries and Basketball” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Author James Boudon’s New Book, “Calvary: The Eternity Eclipse,” Introduces Julia Percy, the Leader of Calvary, as She Fights to Escape Her Captors and Save Humanity
Port Allegany, PA, October 30, 2025 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– James Boudon, a graduate of the University of Rochester with a degree in English, has completed his new book, “Calvary: The Eternity Eclipse”: an enthralling novel that follows Percy as she discovers a nefarious scheme after she and three of her teammates have been abducted by these same rebels while returning from a three-month sabbatical on the distant planet Illyria. Percy herself is subsequently disabled and transformed into a human robot subservient to every whim of her archnemesis, Joshua Winston, who is the leader of the rebels. Meanwhile, the other members of Calvary still on Earth face their own problems as their headquarters is attacked by an advance group of the Gehadeans who seek to sideline the team from averting the impending apocalypse.
Author James Boudon began dabbling at writing short stories in the fourth grade and moved on to creating a comic book called “Rabbitman” during high school and a “Star Trek” novella during college. He has also written numerous poems and song lyrics. He currently works as a rural mail carrier for the US Postal Service and spends his spare time enjoying golf, hiking, and other outdoor activities when he is not writing. He lives in the beautiful hills and countryside of north central Pennsylvania in a rather remote area where the wildlife outnumbers the people.
Boudon writes, “Julia Kristina Percy sighed as a cool breeze from the oscillating floor fan wafted across her scantily clad sculpted physique. Simultaneously upon the memory-sphere player, Impala Quiff, ‘IQ,’ launched into a squealing high-octane guitar solo. Percy moaned contentedly and closed her eyes as the familiar rock ballad evoked a myriad of all-but-forgotten nostalgia. She was reclining on a lounge chair in the living space of her hotel suite. She had just returned from a vigorous workout in the resort’s large pool and was still clad solely in her olive-green bikini. Lead vocalist Nigel Jape resumed crooning the tune’s lyrics in his scintillating and dulcet tones.”
Published by Page Publishing, James Boudon’s memorable tale invites readers to discover whether Percy will be able to return to her home world ahead of the Bellerophon. Otherwise, all life on the planet will be incinerated, and humanity itself will be erased from existence within the universe.
Readers who wish to experience this engrossing work can purchase “Calvary: The Eternity Eclipse” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Atlantic City, NJ, October 24, 2025 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– The era of Atlantic City relying solely on summer crowds and gaming is over. POPPED! The Pop Culture Expo is the official kick-off event for a strategic mission led by Black Ink Events and the Invest Atlantic City coalition. Their goal is ambitious: to create new opportunities in Technology, Entertainment & Tourism, and Business & Workforce Development by bringing regular, smaller, yet powerful events to the city during the off-season. This initiative is designed to be highly accessible and affordable, directly supporting local jobs, boosting tourism, and fueling economic growth year-round.

Legendary Star Power Converges on the Shore This is not a traditional comic-con; it’s a high-energy, meticulously curated, intimate gathering of the stars and creators who defined our favorite genres, celebrating over 50 years of cultural influence.
The celebrity line-up is a powerful trip down memory lane, featuring icons of film, horror, and wrestling for autographs, photos, and panels:

VIP Promo Video Shoots with wrestling icons Joel Gertner, The Ironman, and The Pitbill, giving fans a chance to live out their pop culture wrestling fantasies.
Deep Dives, Discussions, and The Kung Fu Theater The day is packed with interactive experiences, including panels, workshops, and the thrilling Kung Fu Theater, where attendees can enjoy back-to-back screenings of classic Kung Fu cinema like Enter The Dragon and The Five Deadly Venoms. Furthermore, the event will feature The Scott Spillman Gallery, offering a stunning visual retrospective of pop culture history. This commitment to diverse, high-quality programming supports the mission to create a sustainable, year-round tourism product.
The Curated Exhibition Floor: A Marketplace of Local Support The show floor is a vibrant testament to local business support, featuring an exciting array of goods from dedicated small businesses and independent creators specializing in nostalgia, art, and memorabilia. Black Ink Events has meticulously curated the vendor experience to ensure a low-competition environment where every appropriately themed business can thrive, giving attendees an unmissable and unique variety of art, apparel, books, toys, and collectibles they won’t find anywhere else. This focus on small business is central to the overall goal of developing a strong local business and workforce ecosystem.
