Phillip Ford’s New Book, “Don’t Feed the Ratz: Part 2,” is a Gritty Novel About One Man’s Struggle to Get Revenge and Climb the Ladder in the Drug Game
[ad_1]
“Buffalo has always been known for its murder and mayhem since before the sixties or further back,” writes Phillip Ford. “There were popular gangs like Matadors, Mad dogs, and Manhattan lovers. Fast-forward twenty or thirty years, when the crack hit the city and brought with it violence. Geo had an earlier glimpse of the hustle at the young age of nine. When he used to watch his mother’s then boyfriend, David Mims, who had gotten his brains blown out inside of Tay’s, a popular hood fast-food joint located across the street from Wollert Park Projects. He supposedly owed half a million dollars to a notorious gangster named Sly. He watched and learned from so many people he’d come across.”
Published by Page Publishing, Phillip Ford’s captivating tale begins as drug dealer Geo is hit with a devastating blow. Still reeling from the recent death of his family and on the hunt for revenge, Geo learns that his brother Rollo has been killed as well. Instead of slumping into a depression, Geo channels his rage and uses it to motivate him.
More determined to take over his city than ever, Geo enlists the help of an old friend. On his quest for dominance of the drug game, he faces unforeseen hardships and constant danger. Will the streets keep Geo down, or will he be able to rise above?
Readers who wish to experience this rousing work can purchase “Don’t Feed the Ratz: Part 2” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Fayetteville Theologian Reginald J. Lise, Sr. Releases Book Tracing Biblical Covenant from Eden to Christ
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Reginald J. Lise, Sr., a Fayetteville, North Carolina-based scriptural scholar, has released a new book titled "From Prototype to Presentation," published through Christian Faith Publishing. The book is available now in print and digital formats through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and the author’s page on the publisher’s website.
The book’s central argument, according to the announcement, is that the early chapters of Genesis function less as straightforward history and more as a kind of theological blueprint. Lise frames Adam and Eve as a "prototype" — an initial model of union, identity, and dominion meant to be tested and eventually perfected — and traces that idea forward through what the announcement calls the Old Testament’s years of spiritual longing, arriving at Jesus Christ as the "Second Adam" and the Holy Spirit as the Church’s helper.
"Every generation from the Garden onward has been a rehearsal of faith, failure, and longing," Lise said in the announcement. "I wrote this book to invite readers into a deeper understanding of biblical mystery — to show that the fall was never final, but rather the ultimate setup for divine glory and restoration through Christ."
According to the announcement, the book extends beyond traditional biblical exposition to address topics including the spiritual nature of marriage, what it calls the "hidden years" of prophetic silence between the Old and New Testaments, and the intersection of spiritual transformation with neuroscience. The announcement positions it as intended for pastors and ministry leaders as well as general readers interested in covenant theology.
Lise’s author bio describes him as focused on covenant faithfulness and spiritual maturity, themes that run through the book’s stated structure of moving from an original "prototype" toward a final "presentation" in Christ.
For Studio CarryOnHarry, books like this one are a reminder that the self-publishing and faith-publishing space remains a steady outlet for theologians and lay scholars working outside the traditional acquisition model — worth watching as that segment of religious publishing continues to grow.

Broward County Court Judge Woody R. Clermont has picked up two national literary honors for his historical nonfiction book, "The Golden Mansaic Age: The Legendary Malian Empire," which was named a 2026 Distinguished Favorite by the NYC Big Book Award and a 2026 Finalist in the African American Nonfiction category of the Next Generation Indie Book Awards, according to the announcement.
The book centers on Mansa Musa, the 14th-century Malian emperor whose pilgrimage to Mecca became legendary for the sheer volume of gold he carried across the Sahara, a journey said to have affected economies as far away as Cairo and Venice. Drawing on chronicles, oral tradition, and archaeology, the book also traces Sundiata Keita’s founding of the Mali Empire, the rise of Timbuktu as a center of manuscripts and scholarship, and the empire’s eventual decline under Songhai and, later, Moroccan forces. Reader reviews posted to Google Books describe it as weaving oral histories and archaeological research into a narrative-driven account of the empire’s wealth, religion, and politics.
"History becomes more meaningful when we recognize the contributions of civilizations that have too often been overlooked," Clermont said in the announcement. "The Mali Empire reminds us that Africa has a remarkable history of scholarship, economic innovation, leadership, and cultural achievement."
Clermont, who in 2018 became the first Haitian-American male elected to judicial office in Broward County, has published more than 40 books through his own imprint, Woody Clermont Book Publications, covering subjects from law and economics to philosophy and fiction. His educational credentials span ten earned degrees, among them a law degree and a graduate degree in theology from Liberty University completed recently, and he continues advanced study toward a doctoral degree focused on organizational development and innovation. Past recognition for his writing has come from the Florida Authors and Publishers Association, The BookFest, and the Eric Hoffer Book Awards, among others.
The NYC Big Book Award distinction will be marked at the organization’s 2027 awards gala in the New York City area on April 10, 2027.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees the more interesting story here less in the award itself than in the author: a sitting judge building a parallel career as a working historian of pre-colonial Africa, one book at a time.
