birthdays and Gothicism

[eldritchhobbit]

Happy belated birthday to the lovely bellatook, and happy early birthdays to the fabulous sarah531 and the terrific wildviolet4. I am so happy that you are my friends, and I wish for each of you many wonderful birthdays to come!

My latest Attack of the 5'2" Woman column, Getting Gothic, Old-School Style, is now up at Pop Thought.


Dog is God spelled backwards. That means something, I'm just not sure what exactly. But human is namuh spelled backwards.

I have to say, better late than never...and I'm not worried about it!

LOL! Thanks. Somewhere I lost a week of March - I'm all off-kelter now, because my internal calendar missed a few days somewhere! Thanks for understanding. :) *hugs*

Thanks! I'm still waiting for a society to develop based on worship of Boston terriers. I am SO ready to join. :)

great interview and what a fantastic, truly inspirational press. all I usually ever hear are doom'n gloom stories about slashed (er, in the cutting down sense!) lists and conglomerated publishing stables. it's so refreshing to hear about someone with a passion for the genre who set out to change the access and availability of these texts.

I particularly loved his description of his 2nd Radcliffe recommendation: "a little shorter and features less poetry and more terror". he's got me sold on that already. ;)

Thanks so much!

Yes! I know exactly what you mean. I am so impressed with what VB has accomplished and is making possible for readers like me. I really consider it the stuff of heroism, to drive 28 hours in each direction and "save" a text, only to make it simply and cheap for others to enjoy it. I'm so glad I got to help get the story out, even in a modest way. Thanks so much for the kind words!
