Vanessa McFarlin’s Newly Released “Words Whispered in My Ear” is a Thought-Provoking Collection of Poetry and Reflections That Will Inspire
McFarlin shares, “She is the second oldest of ten children born to Lesterine and Charles McFarlin. She was born and raised in a small country community called Gold Lake until they moved into the city of Conway, where she still resides and loves to spend her time playing with her grandchildren and great-grandchild.
“She worked as a certified nursing assistant, a job she truly loved and truly misses, but because of injury, she can’t do it anymore. She is the mother of four children and is most commonly known as Moma Nessa.
“She is also a grandmother to eleven grandchildren and one great-grand. Vanessa has written for most of her life starting at the age of eighteen. She started this journey as a way to cope with ongoing things in her everyday life. She walked on a thin line between right and wrong for many years. That was until the day Jesus Christ walked in and changed her life for the better.
“Vanessa would like to give thanks to her mother, Lesterine; her children, Roberto, Cassandra, Linda, and Victor; her sister, Tina (my girl); and her friend, Beverly, for always listening to her, and Vera Clay and Bettye Robuck, who always reminded her that they loved to read her words.
“And last but not least, she would like to thank her publisher family, Christian Faith Publishing, for giving the time and believing in her to help pursue her dreams. She would like to thank every one of you from the bottom of her heart.”
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Vanessa McFarlin’s new book will share personal reflections and poetic works selected from the author’s private thoughts going back over two decades.
Consumers can purchase “Words Whispered in My Ear” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

Ex-XM Executive’s Memoir Recalls Satellite Radio Launch Delayed by 9/11
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Twenty-five years after the September 11 attacks postponed its debut, a founding XM executive has released a memoir about the satellite radio company’s launch. "They Pay for Water: Building XM Satellite Radio from a Paper Concept to Millions of Subscribers," by Dan Murphy, went on sale August 17 in ebook, paperback and hardcover, according to the announcement.
The company was set to launch its inaugural U.S. satellite radio service on September 12, 2001, in the Dallas/Fort Worth and San Diego markets. Murphy and the executive team flew out of Washington, D.C. in the early morning hours of September 11, per the announcement. The launch was pushed back, going live September 25 and expanding nationally by that November.
After joining Sony as a 24-year-old with minimal prior experience, Murphy spent 15 years helping to capitalize, build, and launch XM’s satellite infrastructure, create its receivers, and establish distribution channels in retail and automotive sectors., the announcement states. "After Walkman, Discman, I was looking to join the next big audio innovation when a recruiter called," Murphy said. "It sounded perfect. It was going to be radio the way it should be."
The volume addresses the company’s funding rounds, satellite deployment, distribution challenges across retail and automotive channels, programming strategy, customer economics, multiple Chapter 11 threats, and its ultimate acquisition by Sirius., according to the announcement. "We had spent years getting ready for the biggest launch of our careers, and then the country stopped," Murphy said. "For weeks afterward, I did not know whether anyone would still care about satellite radio."
Positioned as both corporate history and personal narrative, the book targets audiences seeking insight into the construction of major consumer-facing ventures requiring substantial capital investment. — a framing the announcement ties to ongoing debates in the audio industry over subscription economics. It is Murphy’s first book and is available now on Amazon.

‘SALIGIA’ Inverts the Seven Deadly Sins: New Book Explores Virtues Through Mythological Fantasy
Balle Balle Radio Entertainment Desk
Author Tagore Almeida’s new book, “SALIGIA: The Evil Is Outside. The War Is Within.,” is now available on Amazon, according to the announcement promoting the release.
The title is not invented for the book. SALIGIA is a centuries-old Latin mnemonic device used in Christian theology to remember the seven deadly sins: Superbia (pride), Avaritia (greed), Luxuria (lust), Invidia (envy), Gula (gluttony), Ira (wrath) and Acedia (sloth). The sins themselves never appear as an explicit list in the Bible; the grouping developed within early Christian tradition, drawing on scattered biblical passages, and the acronym became a memory aid for clergy and laypeople alike. The announcement itself does not spell out this connection, though it’s central to how the book’s central conceit works.
Where the traditional mnemonic catalogs vices, Almeida’s book inverts it: according to the announcement, the story is structured as a journey through a symbolic ancestral dwelling with separate rooms, each embodying different virtues rather than sins — courage, compassion, humility, integrity, forgiveness, reverence and love. Other promotional material describes the book as a mythological fantasy following characters named Salem and Medea on a quest against the forces the title names, and credits the release to publisher The Alcove Publishers, which has described the book as blending mythology, self-reflection and mystery.
The announcement frames the project as “a fusion of mythological elements, spiritual themes, philosophical inquiry, and personal exploration,” built around the idea that readers already possess the virtues the book examines, rather than seeking them from external sources.
The book is currently listed for sale on Amazon under Almeida’s author page.
