Author Sharon Rogers’s New Book, “Auntie and the Big Red Comb,” is a Beautiful Story of a Young Girl Whose Aunt Uses Her Special Red Comb to Help with Her Hair
A native of Hickman, Kentucky, author Sharon Rogers holds a bachelor’s degree in home economics majoring in child development from Murray State University, as well as a master’s degree in education and instructional technology from American InterContinental University. As a Head Start teacher, she would often write stories about her students to make them laugh and, in her spare time, she enjoys motivational speaking for teenagers, braiding hair, writing children’s short stories and poetry, and running the Mrs. Sharon Reading Corner for young children online.
Sharon writes, “For us as children, every Saturday was our hair ritual day. We would wake up, clean the house, and start the practice. We would wash, dry, and straighten our hair. My mom or older sister would braid our hair. As a grown-up, it is my turn. This ritual continued, but it is I who would wash, condition, blow-dry, and braid my niece’s hair. It is always a great bonding and learning time. There are special combs for combing and parting our hair.
“This story is about a little girl named Brittany and her auntie. Brittany knows that when Auntie walks in with her bag with the big red comb and supplies, it is time to do her hair. Brittany also knows that she will be counting, sorting, and making patterns with beads to go on her hair. Auntie believes that when she braids Brittany’s hair in love, it will always come out in a beautiful style. It never comes out the same way twice. Not only is Auntie making her beautiful, but she is also teaching her some math skills.”
Published by Page Publishing, Sharon Rogers’s adorable tale is inspired by the author’s own experiences doing her niece’s hair, and the wonderful connection they share from spending that time together. With colorful and vibrant illustrations by Mark Watts, readers of all ages are sure to be delighted by “Auntie and the Big Red Comb” and want to revisit this riveting tale over and over again.
Readers who wish to experience this enthralling work can purchase “Auntie and the Big Red Comb” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

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.

New Space Opera ‘Cacophony Of Separation’ Follows Two Broken Souls Through a Galactic Empire Built on Subjugation
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Bryan P. Harty has a new novel out: "Cacophony Of Separation," a dark space opera depicting a future in which Earth’s dominant leaders control alien races and subjugated worlds through force. Studio CarryOnHarry received an announcement of the release, published through Newman Springs Publishing.
The book follows two central characters. Boer, a disgraced addict, seeks redemption by facing trials the publisher characterizes as impossible. Rebecca has lost her memory but is driven by vengeance. According to the announcement, the two are on a collision course that will determine whether humanity’s empire survives its own corruption, with ancient powers maneuvering behind the scenes throughout.
The publisher describes Harty’s work as centered on morally ambiguous protagonists and unresolved consequences, with the author’s stated approach avoiding tidy endings in favor of choices that carry lasting weight. The novel’s advertised themes include addiction, redemption, transformation, and the fracturing of empires built on subjugation.
Harty framed the book’s central question in his own words: "This novel asks what we’re willing to become in pursuit of redemption, and whether the cost is ever worth the price. Boer and Rebecca exist in a galaxy that doesn’t forgive weakness, yet both must find strength in the wreckage of their former selves. I wanted to create a space opera that refuses to look away from the brutality of power and the hunger for transformation."
Retail listings describe the book similarly, pitching it as a dark, unflinching look at power, addiction, transformation and the cost of redemption, with cover copy inviting readers to "step into a galaxy where nothing — and no one — is what it seems." The novel is listed for sale in paperback and Kindle editions, alongside Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching to see whether Harty’s promise of unresolved, morally messy storytelling holds up as more readers weigh in, given how heavily the announcement leans on that distinction.
