About
The people behind Lite Magazines, how each article about how-tos and everyday know-how is put together, and what we will not publish.
What you are looking at is a working blog. Old pieces stay up in the archive rather than quietly disappearing, including the ones that have aged badly.
Lite Magazines began because the straight answers about how-tos and everyday know-how were scattered across forum threads, comment sections, and messages nobody archived. We decided to write them down properly instead.
Nothing gets filed under three headings at once. If a piece does not have an obvious home, that usually means it has not been thought through yet. The busiest sections are how-to, home and lifestyle.
There is no house byline here. Each piece is signed, and each signature leads to everything else that person has put their name to.
Clara Mensah, How-to editor. Clara writes clear step-by-step guides for everyday tasks, the kind of practical how-to that gets you from stuck to done.
Oscar Beaumont, Home and practical. Oscar covers fixing, making, and caring for things around the house, with honest, hands-on guidance.
Lena Fischer, Culture and explainers. Lena digs into the meanings and backgrounds behind the questions people ask, explaining them plainly and without fuss.
We are not the right place for advice tailored to your exact situation. Lite Magazines publishes general guidance, and the difference matters more than it sounds.
Nothing here is written from a search results page. If we have not handled it ourselves or spoken to somebody who has, we leave the topic alone until we have.
We buy what we write about. It is slower, it is more expensive, and it is the only arrangement that lets us say a thing was not worth it.
The full process, including corrections and commercial links, is set out on the editorial policy page.
Tell us which line is wrong and why, at [email protected] or through the contact page. Small errors are corrected the same week. Anything that changes the advice gets a dated note at the bottom of the article.
