Author Sergeant Skid Row’s New Book, “Still Trudging: the Broad Highway,” is an Engaging Series of Short Stories Inspired by the Author’s Journey to Healing and Sobriety
[ad_1]
“With over forty-three years of sobriety, with significant health issues, and confined to my home under the COVID-19 quarantine, I found myself writing short stories about my recovery,” writes Row. “The short-story format seems to fit my attention span. As I see it, God gave me the gift of life, and these short stories are my way of regifting.”
Row continues, “I kept the stories short based on the premise that I might not be the only one with a short attention span. Some stories are about a single event, others cover a number of years, and some reflect some of my thoughts I’ve picked up along the way.
“I hope some of my stories are helpful if not entertaining. Maybe someone can avoid some of the mistakes I’ve made along the way. It took me a year to find the ‘easier, softer way.’ It took a year and a half to become willing. It took me two years to get into service. It took three years to be comfortable in my own skin. It took me five years to experience real serenity, a God-conscious serenity. It took about twenty-six years to complete my Fifth Step (letting go of that last secret). Hopefully, things will come quicker for you than they did for me.”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Sergeant Skid Row’s new book is an eye-opening exploration of what one goes through before, during, and after the search for sobriety, as told from a personal viewpoint of one who’s experienced it himself. A raw and honest read, Row shares “Still Trudging: The Broad Highway” in the hopes of inspiring others in his position to seek help and begin their second chance at life.
Readers can purchase “Still Trudging: The Broad Highway” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

New Children’s Book ‘Mocha, the Ground Fairy’ Follows a Guinea Pig Determined to Fly
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Dr. Leslie Merida-Gonzalez has published a new children’s book, "Mocha, the Ground Fairy," through Fulton Books. The story follows Mocha, a brown, fluffy guinea pig who attempts to fly using wings built from leaves and twigs, only to land, each time, skidding on her bottom, which earns her the teasing nickname from her fellow guinea pigs.
Merida-Gonzalez is a music teacher in Port St. Lucie, Florida, where she works with children with varying needs. She holds a doctorate in education with a focus on exceptional student education, a background she says shapes how she thinks about reaching different kinds of young readers. According to the announcement, the guinea pig characters in the book are drawn from pets her own children had growing up.
The book centers on Mocha’s refusal to quit despite ridicule from her peers, drawing courage, in the story, from her grandmother’s fairy tales. "Through Mocha’s journey, I wanted to remind children that falling doesn’t mean failing," Merida-Gonzalez said in the announcement. "Every stumble is simply another step toward finding the magic that’s been inside them all along." The publisher describes the book as aimed at encouraging children to keep trying after setbacks and to embrace what makes them different.
"Mocha, the Ground Fairy" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Play, and the Apple iTunes Store, as well as directly through Fulton Books’ website.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees stories like Mocha’s as part of a steady stream of small-press children’s books built around a simple, repeatable idea: a animal protagonist, a visible flaw, and a lesson about persistence. The appeal isn’t novelty, it’s execution, and that’s worth watching for in any read-aloud picture book pitched this way.

Fulton Books Author Abagail Lynn Releases Fantasy Adventure “The Rebel”
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Abagail Lynn has released a new novel, "The Rebel," a fantasy adventure centered on an unsuspecting character drawn into a clash between two worlds where the kingdom’s fate hangs in the balance. The book is published through Fulton Books.
According to the announcement, the story follows an unsuspecting hero thrust into extraordinary circumstances as tensions between the two realms escalate. The publisher describes the novel as blending adventure, romance, and themes of hope, with the protagonist discovering hidden strength while confronting questions about sacrifice, belonging, and what it means to stand against long odds.
The paperback edition runs 846 pages and was published in April 2026, according to retail listings for the title. Lynn’s narrative approach, per the announcement, pairs action sequences with emotional character work, aiming for a story that moves between danger and quieter, more personal moments.
"The Rebel" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers, including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
For Studio CarryOnHarry, the appeal of this one will come down to execution: epic-fantasy premises built on a "two worlds collide" setup are common, and the 846-page length suggests Lynn is aiming for a fuller immersion in her world rather than a quick read.
