New post time at Gothic Charm School!

[cupcake_goth]

Of Cakes, Dresses, And Princesses. And Lady GaGa?

Just like always, staxxy, maiaarts, and the Finishing School of Flail were splendid beta readers and sanity checks. Thank you!

And also just like always, this is where I ask you lovely folks to help spread the word about the new post! Thank you!





(I slept in until 10:30 this morning. It was heavenly.)

Great job, Jilli - I loved how you handled these.

Indeed! Especially "The Gothic Princess" ~ that could have been a bit challenging, but it was handled with such grace and tact.

BTW, I had a picture of you up on the wall at artwalk last night and overheard one women speaking to another while pointing you out and telling her "that's the woman that wrote the Gothic Charm School book".

Eep, eep, eep! Really?

(Note for my own memory: email Marc & Libby about your upcoming need for photographers!)

Yep.I saw her pointing you out specifically and crept closer so I could over hear her talking to her friend. Two women. Not gothy at all or friends with the studio, about our age.

(I am of course at your service for any photography needs.)

Wow! Lady Gaga is everywhere these days.

You really should check her out to see why people may think why she is Gothic. There really seems to be some kind of Gothic influence in some of her work. You are right she seems to be more glam rock then anything else

You may have checked out some of her stuff,but in case you haven't I shall leave links to some of her stuff.

Bad Romance Music Video( Seems to have kind of inspiration from cyber goth. There are weird coffin like things. If you listen closely to the lyircs she is refrencing Alfred Hitchcock movies. Also the ending of the video seems to be from a B-movie. Pretty funny actually.

VMA Paparazzi Performance(Worth the watch because this is what made me really like her. The performance is quit like that of shock rock.)

Gr hit reply by accident also wanted to say that a friend of mine let me borrow your books and so far I've loved it.

I shall play spot The Crow the next time I go to some sort of I'm so spooky concert.

Cake Wrecks did a Sunday Sweets of Goth wedding cakes that might be of interest for the cake question, as well. http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2009/03/sunday-sweets-undead-wed.html

You certainly handled the princess better than I would have. I think Fay needs to put her into the RPF.

Well, as you love dolls and maybe slightly interested to know more about Lady GaGa - a friend sent me this link the other day, you might find it interesting...
