Author Patricia Carson’s New Book, “Meeting Valentino Molina,” is an Enthralling Tale That Explores the Savannah Artist’s Life and His Connection to the Author’s Family


Savannah, GA, March 01, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Patricia Carson is a composer, scriptwriter, and educator. She earned a Master of Music degree from the University of Oregon and worked in the U.S., Europe, as well in the Middle East. Her new book, “Meeting Valentino Molina: Lifting the Veil on the Incredible Life of a Savannah Artist” is a poignant biography that explores a side of the famed Valentino Molina many have never known about, and explains how the author was first introduced to his work through a connection with her husband’s family.

“Valentino Molina was born in Savannah, Georgia, in 1879. He was a talented and insecure young man whose life took a positive turn when his nude painting Cleopatra caught the attention of two elegant ladies who became his mentors. It then became a colorful roller coaster of events during the volatile late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries,” writes Carson.

Valentino became successful as a portraitist and lived in Canada, Spain, aristocratic London, Gay Paris, and southern France. He was affiliated with royalty, John Singer Sargent, Rudolph Valentino, and other rich and famous notables of the era. His paintings can be found in galleries in Canada, Spain, England, and in private collections here and abroad, as well as at the Telfair Museum in Savannah.

“This is also the story of Molina’s art, music, sexuality, the mystery of the naked Cleopatras, and a home renovation that led to the discovery of his past as well as his surprising affiliation with the Gignilliat family of Savannah.”

Published by Page Publishing, Patricia Carson’s captivating tale will leave readers spellbound as she brings to life one of Savannah’s most prominent artists, his work, and his complex and cosmopolitan life story. Expertly paced and thought-provoking, Carson weaves a fascinating story that will transport readers back in time and remain with them long after its conclusion.

St. Louis Author Greg Stuart Debuts Suspense Novel “Lifeline”

St. Louis Author Greg Stuart Debuts Suspense Novel “Lifeline”

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

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.
