Good afternoon my friends and supporters of the Ken Pierce Media High Command, I am hoping that the day has started out great for you. If you’re located within our own NYC sphere, its my hope that you are well-hydrated and in some kind of air conditioning since its been so hot out there for the past few days including today. So I’m here once more with an announcement and one that I really look forward to doing each and every year. Today is the day of the Toy Insider’s annual “Sweet Suite” event for 2024 and will be held at an event space known as the Glasshouse. That’s going to be another new one for me and makes me all the more excited about it.

Hello once more my fine Friends of the Ken Pierce Media realm, by now this kind of post is no longer a surprise and its time to let you know that the Official TikTok for KPM has achieved another one of its plateaus and another “50” clips have gone online. Yes, I have now pressed publish on the 650th clip and this one originates from the Spring edition of the Artexpo New York that I attended back in April. While it seems a long time ago already, I do so many long form and shorter videos at events like this that it takes some time to premiere every single one of them. I just love being able to share such awesome artists with our followers and as many already know, this particular event gets properly covered by the Piercing Ken side of our creative coin. So now its time to enjoy this next celebration post which is the art of Thomas J. Savino. Ladies and Gentlemen in the TikTok Universe, presenting the 650th TikTok from Ken Pierce Media.

Ken Pierce Media Celebrates Its Fourth Anniversary (2020-2024)

Greetings my fine friends out there in the readership audience. I’m here once more to take a pause from the usual course of business to celebrate a website birthday. Believe it or not, today marks the fourth anniversary of the Ken Pierce Media brand and while much of the past year has been a steady as they go operation, there have been some additional efforts that help keep this angle growing and becoming a larger and more important piece of the creative puzzle. Before I continue along, let me share something with the newer visitors to the site since they might not know about it only being created and launched back in 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The lockdown and absence of pretty much all activity found me not only working in earnest on older site items for PiercingMetal and “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” but also looking to deliver some good content via another means. The initial goal was to generate some consultancy money by helping others with their own blogs and sites and the other side was to help grow the other two sites under my creative command. It began as a simple Blogspot, then subsumed our long-standing PiercingMetal Tumblr and finally became the WordPress site that you are now reading. Now you are all caught up and on we go. When I wrap this all up I’ll share a few of the topical articles about the whole thing for the interested. Let’s continue along shall we…

Ken Pierce Media Posts 600th Clip on TikTok

Greetings and Felicitations Friends of the Ken Pierce Media realm and all of our entertainment efforts. It’s once again time to make a post about the Official TikTok for KPM hitting its next plateau and once again this was done is just over a one month period. We have now pressed publish on the 600th clip and its a fun one as it relates to a happening that I greatly enjoy around this time of the year called “Free Comic Book Day”. For the unaware this is a yearly happening where participating comic book retailers let you take a batch of comic books that have been designated for this funny geeky experience. After adventuring around the city hitting a number of shops I shared the visual of the loot for one of our TikToks. These “reveals” seem to do good for our own network and generally hit about 300 or so views within hours of being posted. A longer video from the aforementioned adventuring will premiere on YouTube once I get it all formatted and scheduled. Now, before I get any deeper into this post – presenting the 600th TikTok from Ken Pierce Media.
