Goodbye, 2015

This year has been a mixed bag of depression and disappointment.  It's been one letdown after another.  The only highlight of this year for me was The Black Rose naming my blog as one of the 20 Best Goth and Alternative Blogs of 2015.  So, I'll be looking at the coming new year with a bit of skepticism.

Merry After Christmas!

Evening, all.  Hope those that celebrated had a good Christmas.  Mine went well.  I got to enjoy good company, good food, and received some great gifts.  I'm not going to tell you about all the gifts that I got.  Instead, I'm just going to narrow it down to the top 5.

• Numbers 1-2: These sweet Loungefly purses.  I love accessories that involve skulls.

• Number 3: A How to Train Your Drag Queen t-shirt from Offworld Designs that was designed by Aurelio Voltaire.
• Numbers 4-5: Special Editions of Empire Records and The Craft on dvd.

There you have it.  My top 5 Christmas gifts.  Next week, I'll be heading out to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens.  An awesome time will be had.  May the force be with you.

The Vampire Blues

What does Vampires + The Blues equal?  4am Vampire Blues.  That's the name of the album by Neon Midnight.  Armed with just a guitar and soothing vocals, Neon Midnight delivers a sound that is both enchanting and mesmerizing.  4am Vampire Blues can be found on spotify, amazon, and itunes.

Want more Neon Midnight?  They can also be found on youtube under the name of herbs and altars.  On their channel, you can listen to them waffle on about a variety of things.  They also do awesome make-up tutorial videos.  Happy listening and viewing.

A Wild Aji Appears

Hello, readers.  Been pretty quiet over here on my end.  Sorry about that.  Writer's block has struck again.  Other than that, I had a super low key birthday celebration earlier this week.

My mother fixed a special dinner, bought a cake, and got me a few things off my wishlist.  That was pretty much it.  Anyway, I have a question for you all.  Are there any goth/alternative topics that you would like for me to cover?  If so, let me know in the comments.

Now, I'm off to watch some videos on youtube and veg out.  Til next time.

A Very Important Message

New Link

Afternoon, all.  I just added a new link to my link list called "STUFF THAT I SUPPORT."  Under it, I'll be posting links to crowdfunding sites for projects that I'm really interested in and want to help make happen.  The first link that I posted is to an indiegogo campaign for the book "Midnight, Me & Bob Macabre."

From the Bob Macabre indiegogo page:

The book is about a little boy named Vex, who has violent night terrors riddled with "Spookies."  The night terrors are so bad that the Spookies invade his waking world.  On top of being taunted by the foul creatures, everyone refuses to believe Vex.  Even his Mum and little sister Twink think he's crazy...poor kid.

Enter Bob Macabre - infamous Spookie Wrangler and head of the Nightmare World.  Bob teaches Vex how to conquer his fears and defeat the Spookies through a series of adventures.

If you're interested and want to help make this book happen, head on over to the Midnight, Me and Bob Macabre indiegogo campaign page and donate.
