The lady who interviewed me was extremely cool.

Thank you! The interviewer is a very talented photographer.

aaw that is so cool! :D

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[e-juliana.livejournal.com]

Yay! And I love that picture of you.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

She took some really good photos of me. I was quite shocked.

[marc17.livejournal.com]

Grats!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thanky!

Oh that is a great article!

I have been so fortunate to find a very very similar environment at my daytime job here in town. My cubicle walls are decorated in velvet curtains, and brocade fabric, venice lace, et cetera- and yes I have been wearing the petticoats to work, too!

The added silliness- today I am working on a project for who? Microsoft! ha ha ha!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm so glad to hear you've been wearing petticoats to work! That just tickles me no end.

What an awesome interview. I loved the way the set it up and photographed it! How fun!

The lady who runs the Microspotting site is very nifty; she's a pink-haired Burning Man type, so we bonded over being corporate freaks.

Who's this Jillian person they keep talking about? I know a Jilli, but...

Great interview!

Also, I am shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU, that it is possible to imagine you in a T-shirt.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Ha! I do go by Jillian at work, for no particular reason.

Yes, I own t-shirts. They're all baby tees from various concerts, or GCS ones. They're good for doing chores in!

[bork.livejournal.com]

Yay!

Great interview, and beautiful pictures!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[weaselmom.livejournal.com]

My GOD, you give good interview.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Ha! Thank you. I felt like I babbled a lot, but that may just be my interpretation.

Aw, I can totally see you as a very cute small child wanting to be the witch and marrying Dracula. The mental picture makes me pretty happy. That was a great interview and the pictures were great.

I wanted to marry Dracula too, well Dracula and also the drummer for Kiss (but really only because he wore kitty cat makeup, and was less gross than Gene). Who doesn't want to be especially chosen to be the queen of the night? After all he's quite a lavisher of attention and also normally has some cool spooky badass theme music around him all the time.

I think the only part I really didn't like about Dracula movies when I was little was when they let the "brides" eat the little human babies. That always disturbed me a little. Other than that, many of his victims didn't seem to quick on the uptake and kind of seemed to deserve their demise.
*done rambling*

Kiss! When I was a wee thing, my parents asked me if I wanted a Ken doll to go with my Barbie. I apparently scrunched up my face in distaste and announced "No. Ken is BORING. My Barbie dates Kiss! Can I have the Kiss dolls?"

[torreybird.livejournal.com]

What a fantastic interview. Your agent must be thrilled!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

She is! She really liked the interview.

(Oh! And I owe you mail from last night. Let me go look at at that again ...)

[princekermit.livejournal.com]

I believe the first picture almost perfectly captures how I see you.

Just thought I'd mention...

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Giggly? I guess I can understand that ...

[my-poison-apple.livejournal.com]

That's so awesome! I sent the link to one of my friends who just started at Microsoft. She's rather counter-cultural herself and doesn't exactly blend in to the typical corporate environment, so I thought she'd appreciate reading it. :)

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Yay! What area of MS is she in?

[mzdeliverance.livejournal.com]

What a wonderful interview! I enjoyed reading that very much :D

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[amecia.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm trying to get a job at MS as a tech writer. Any advice?

Thanks!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

How much tech writing experience do you have? Have you sent your resume off to the contract houses like Volt and S&T? Those are good places to get started.

[amecia.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I'm your neighbor two doors down. We met at one of your yard sales. :-)

[kambriel.livejournal.com]

How adorable are you?!

I feel proud and lucky to have you representing the gothic scene! Thank you for being utterly charming :)

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Good luck with the trunk show!

[mineke.livejournal.com]

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thank you, sweetie!

[maiaarts.livejournal.com]

Cool that they have someone with that your talent
It is great to show younger folks that freaks can have jobs too!
Go Jilli!

[javagoth.livejournal.com]

Nifty!

[bebemochi.livejournal.com]

What a very nice interview, and the photos are just great! The first one, in particular, is really flattering.

[twilight2000.livejournal.com]

Excellent article -- you interview brilliantly!

[ozitonaranjo.livejournal.com]
