Event reminder, and a question for Gothic Charm School readers

[cupcake_goth]

Remember! This coming Sunday, myself and oodles of other talented people will be vending at the Mourning Market! 12-5PM at Club Motor (1950 1st Ave Seattle, WA 98134). I will be selling the Gothic Charm School book, art prints from the book, hand-embroidered "cranky" bloomers, and stripy heart brooches. Come on by and say hello!

Yes, I have been thinking about a second Gothic Charm School book. (Because I ... have too much free time? Something like that.) An obvious subject for me to expand upon would be fashion, because hello, I like talking about clothes. (I'm considering including a few tutorials, but I'm leery of treading over well-worn ground that others such as Voltaire have covered.)

Which leads to my question! What sort of things would you like to see in another Gothic Charm School book? Tell me in the comments. Brainstorming is fun!

Yes! And further to this, I'd be interested in advice for (and seeing examples of) surviving the scary transition to adulthood. I'm 26 now and see 30 looming ominously on the horizon. I have a full-time job, a long-term partner and now a mortgage - basically, I've moved into the terrifying realm of the 'grown-up'. That can be a scary place to be, regardless of subcultural leanings. It is always comforting to see that while new responsibilities and expenses might restrict your ability to go to clubs, concerts or fill your wardrobe with wonderful, expensive clothes, you DO NOT have to sacrifice your identity and ideals. Unfortunately, a lot of people (goth and non-goth alike) don't realise this.

Some simple craft/diy projects might be fun, too :).
