Author Kennedy Stone’s New Book, “Illusory Adventures,” is a Spellbinding Fantasy Novel About a Young Girl Who Embarks on a Life-Changing Journey
Noname has no control over her status, which was given to her by her parents. Living only with her older sister Malone, she attempts to find the answers while trying to restore respect to her family’s name, even if the kingdom is collapsing around her. No matter what stands in her way, she will take every chance to prove her worth. Powerful allies and enemies alike will watch as the youth change and figure out the secrets they have kept under wraps for years. Traveling throughout all the levels of society, she will discover that monsters come in all shapes and sizes. In the brightest whites and darkest blacks, as well as everything in between, Noname’s eye-opening journey will test her strength, her magic, and her mind. She must succeed in her adventure and be quick about it. Either that or nothing in her life will ever be the same.
Whether it be anime and manga, video games, or Western cartoons, stories involving magical settings have been a point of inspiration for author Kennedy Stone. She is a soft-spoken girl with a wild side that only comes out around certain people. Spending time with her dog, Gertrude, along with her many fish tanks and gecko habitats, is the main way she relaxes. Her strong belief that everyone is deserving of respect and happiness drives her to write creatively and journalistically. She started this book in 2018, with the original concept coming even before that, and designed the characters herself. She hopes her story will inspire others to have hope for the world and spark a desire to change it for the better.
Stone writes, “Noname was completely sure that she, and her sister, had the worst set of circumstances in the kingdom. They were public enemy number one. They barely had enough money to stay on their level, and now they were being called to the royal palace, which she knew couldn’t mean anything good. The only occurrences of the royal council calling individuals to the palace were when someone had committed an extreme crime, or at least those were the only ones she had heard of. No one, however, knew what exactly happened to people when they went into this place. Since the dark times started, civilians knew there were punishments for crime, but what those punishments were was anyone’s guess. People may not like the council, but they could do whatever they want, including making people ‘disappear,’ since people who get called in are rarely heard of again.”
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Kennedy Stone’s electrifying tale follows Noname as she discovers that one person might be the key to solving the problems no one else sees.
Readers who wish to experience this dynamic work can purchase “Illusory Adventures” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Greg Stuart, a lifelong resident of St. Louis, has published his debut novel, "Lifeline," a suspense thriller centered on a man who can deliver messages from the recently deceased to their grieving families.
The book follows Damian Hunter, who gains this ability after a near-death experience, per the press release. For a time, the gift serves as a source of comfort for families who receive final words from lost loved ones. The story turns when Hunter is given a narrow window to deliver a message to what the announcement describes as one of the most feared people in the country. He sets out on the errand uncertain whether he can even be believed, let alone survive the attempt, with what the publisher describes as time running out and opposition closing in.
"Lifeline" was released by Newman Springs Publishing for purchase at retail locations and digital platforms including Apple iBooks, Amazon, and Barnes & Noble. No detailed author biography accompanied the announcement beyond Stuart’s St. Louis roots and this being his first novel.
For Studio CarryOnHarry, the premise — a reluctant messenger forced to confront the most dangerous person imaginable — is a familiar thriller setup, and the real test will be whether Stuart’s execution gives it the tension the concept promises.

New Book from Relationship Coach Kat O’Connor Tackles the Everyday Friction of Blended Families
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Kat O’Connor, a relationship coach who has spent more than a decade working with singles, couples and blended families, has released a new guide for stepparents, "Life in the Blender: A Stepparent’s Guide to Blending a Family," published through Newman Springs Publishing.
The book is aimed at a specific, common problem: what happens after the wedding, when two households and two sets of family habits are supposed to become one. O’Connor’s book focuses on the friction points that tend to come up in that process, including loyalty conflicts between children and parents, disagreements over household boundaries, and communication breakdowns between stepparents and stepchildren, according to the announcement.
O’Connor holds a degree in sociology and is a certified relationship coach. The announcement also draws on her own history: a divorce in 2006, nine years as a single parent, and the formation of her own blended family in 2019. The publisher describes the book as combining that personal experience with her coaching background, working through real-world scenarios rather than abstract advice.
"My mission has always been to help families transition from conflict and confrontation back to communication and conversation," O’Connor said in the announcement. "This book represents years of coaching experience combined with my personal journey through blended family life, and I hope it becomes an invaluable companion for anyone seeking to build a stronger, more connected household."
According to the publisher, the book walks through strategies for building trust across family lines, setting boundaries, and developing relationships between stepparents and stepchildren, with the stated aim of helping readers move from tension toward what the announcement calls a more cohesive family unit. It’s worth noting the title has been used before: a 2006 memoir by singer Sandi Patty, also called "Life in the Blender," covered similar territory about blended families from a personal and faith-based perspective, though it’s a separate, unrelated book.
"Life in the Blender" is available at bookstores and through Apple Books, Amazon, Google Play and Barnes & Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees a crowded shelf here — blended-family guidance is not new territory — but the appeal of a book built on a coach’s own client work rather than pure theory is real, and worth watching for how it lands with readers navigating that transition themselves.
