good news just hit the streets, literally.

unexpectedly, but all for the better, the first volume is out a bit early !

it's available for pick-up at the boyertown comunity library as well as boyertown's medicine shoppe and mayor-owned twin turrets inn. if you're out toward douglassville, copies are ready for the taking at gently used books.

more distribution sites will be announced soon.

if you'd like the PDF version in person or via the interwebs, e-mail us at newsnotblues@gmail.com.

the first story and contest will also be popping up on the blog shortly ! more fun freebies are ahead thanks to local business owners who also want to keep positive news coverage aplenty around us.  

stay tuned and again, literally-- spread the word !

an update for the first print volume !

we hope to have a the first-ever print volume of news, not blues out for your eye-scoping skills by the 15th of july. the stories from that edition, and gladly more ahead, will be posted here for you to see and make share-worthy. also, keep your eyes peeled for freebies we'll be giving away care of some friendly local business owners who are investing their efforts positively for the benefit of our community.

and in the meantime, be persuaded into coos by the smile-thick ways of our mascot, ville (pronounced vee-lay) the cow-spotted fur child ! he exudes all things happy.

if you know about positive local news well worth some coverage, or if you'd like a copy of the upcoming first edition, drop us a line at newsnotblues@gmail.com.

because sometimes you want a perk-- a local one.

every once in a while, rhyme has its place in the world without coming off as a sheer joke or embarrassment.

here at news, not blues, we plan to bring positive news to the community in the web realm since hard news takes precedent on local news sites. while it's essential too, admittedly, so are recurring reasons to notice and hear about the happier happenings on the locale scale. we created this spot in the blogisphere to bring you an excuse to remember why you chose southeastern pennsylvania as your home and not anywhere else on this earth.

as readers, you deserve to learn about the upbeat, wonderful, and more pleasant parts of life too-- right where you live. and if you want to pass it around, this place will exist well beyond ephemerally compared to a tree-cut version of where the news is tucked away weekly.

enjoy the posts to come !
