November Highlights

Every month brings its own changes.  Here in New Hampshire, the temperatures are more consistently cold, which means that the windows are closed until spring and the furnace is running.  Halloween decorations are down and have been replaced with Thanksgiving items.  Fall sports seasons have ended for our student-athletes, and we await the beginning of winter sports.  At PeKu there are new happenings also.

  • Couch Tuber has a new look and article format.  We begin each week by highlighting the top shows for the coming week.  During the week we also make recommendations for one show each

Fill Your Bookshelves

Most of my workday focuses on the world of the internet.  My livelihood is supported by PeKu and its presence on the web.  I love having this career, even with the occasional technical glitch.  However, when my projects are done for the day, I love to close my laptop and immerse myself in the world of print.

Maybe it is because my day is spent in front of a screen, but thus far I have chosen not to use an eReader.  Rather, I prefer to read from actual books.  There is something about the weight of a book,

5 for October

What's new at PeKu this month?  Here's a quick peek at five highlights.

  1. Couch Tuber reborn- Last week we launched a brand new version of our tv publication.  Not only is there a new look for the website but we also have changed the format of the articles.  Rather than highlighting tv shows by their genre, each week we highlight the best, the worst, and one in between.

  2. 'Bout Books redesigned- Although not undergoing a change as big as Couch Tuber, 'Bout Books has a new look.  Still featuring book reviews of recently published books, we cover many genres

October Highlights

We may be seven days into the month, but it is only the first Monday in October.  Here in New Hampshire, the nights are colder, and the leaves are turning brilliant shades of orange, yellow, and red.  Pumpkins are everywhere- decorating homes and appearing in almost food and beverage available.  I love this time of year.  The days are warm enough that there's no need for multiple layers of clothes, but the nights have a delightful chill to them.  Perfect for sleeping with the window cracked and an extra blanket.

At PKP, we are embracing October in many

Change, Change, Change

I've played with the format of Editorially Yours several times.  Originally I published the article on Wednesdays.  After a year of following this schedule, I moved the article to Mondays.  Over a year and a half later, it feels like time for a change again.  However, this time the change isn't a matter of choosing a different day, it needs a bigger alteration.

The Editorially Yours column is written to share a little behind the scenes at PKP/inside the mind of the CEO.  While this can be an interesting format, it has begun to feel stale to me.
