Streaming & Adaptations: Prime Video drops “Off Campus” (Elle Kennedy’s hockey romance) globally on May 13, with all eight episodes at once—another sign publishers’ fanbases are becoming TV launch engines. Publishing & Prizes: New Zealand writer Holly Ann Miller won the 2026 Commonwealth Short Story Prize for the Pacific for “Second Skin,” set on a sheep farm during lambing. Local Education Watch: Kerala’s SSLC results are confirmed for Friday, with textbook distribution and school reopening logistics staying on track.
