Gratitude...

#thanksgiving #gratitude #goth #libra #dark #books #holiday #cemetery #taphophile #death #haunted

Hello, my lovelies. I hope those of you in the US are all enjoying a wonderful day full of food, loved ones, and laughs. Or, if you’re like me, a cozy day at home with peace and quiet. Either way, what bliss, am I right? I don’t really get into much celebration other than Halloween, but I figured today would be a good day to speak on things for which I am grateful. The obvious ones are family,…

New beginnings...

With the uncertainty that looms ahead for many of us, I feel it is imperative that I continue to create. Happiness and fulfillment are my focus, and I can guarantee those things more easily here in my cemetery than out in the regular world. Do not mistake my silence for apathy, just know that my focus going forward will be on the work that keeps my little dark heart beating. That being said, I…

From the dark recesses...

Something new. Please do not share without credit. **************************************** Face value means nothing when you wear a Janus mask, and you shroud yourself in the art of fabrication. My feet seem forever planted on the fine line, as I balance precariously between blithesome and bother. Fear won’t allow me to speak, lest you become annoyed. So, I remain, locked in this painful…

Dracula!

#Dracula #vampire #theater #play #actor #libra #goth #death #dark #cemetery #taphophile #classic #literature #bramstoker

Yesterday, I treated myself to a performance of Dracula by a local theater group. This may sound rather mundane; a trip to the theater is exquisite, but not necessarily newsworthy. Well, did I mention that this was an immersive production (my first!) with a revised locale of Virginia? This was no ordinary Dracula. Hang on tight, my lovelies. Here is my Wolfbane Productions Presents: Dracula…

Another year...

#birthday #libra #october #celebrate #goth #cemetery #taphophile #death #dark #books

Today is your beloved Twisted Libra’s birthday! And you all know how we Libra folk love to celebrate in October. This is basically my month. The whole goddamn month. It’s mine. My birthday, Halloween, spooky decor on sale nearly everywhere…I am happiest this time of year! So, how does one so fascinated with death celebrate her own life? Well, my typical birthday begins with a quiet walk with…

Hello, October!

#hurricane #disaster #donate #october #libra #goth #cemetery #NCStrong #help #taphophile #dark

The greatest month of all has finally arrived! Hello, my beautiful October! There are so many wonderful reasons to appreciate this month, least of all being Halloween! This is the one time during the year when my outside world matches my inside feelings. For 31 delicious days, everyone is a creepy, gothic freak! We all rise out of our coffins in search of macabre delight! I have been writing…

Bring me to life...

I feel the stirrings of creativity once again, my lovelies. Summer officially ends today, and if your beloved Twisted Libra was capable of performing back flips, I would do several. Bring on the cooler temps, the early sunsets, and the lack of insects. I am ready. Since taking on the new day job, I find I have less time for creative ventures. It is difficult to balance my survival in the real…

Is it time for Twisted Libra 2.0?

#poetry #cemetery #taphophile #website #libra #google #squarespace #wordpress #goth #dark #death #books

A few months back, my website domain through Google was purchased by Squarespace. The transition has been, shall we say, less than stellar. In truth, Squarespace and its nonexistent customer service can go fuck itself. I have been unable to edit my website since the transfer. Inquiries and support requests go unanswered. This is absolutely ludicrous. To say I am upset would be an understatement.…

There's life in the old girl yet...

I finally made it back to my favorite cemetery, my lovelies! Hollywood Cemetery absolutely feeds my dark little soul. I have not visited in several weeks due to the atrociously brutal summer weather. Alas, things have finally begun to cool down here, and this morning I made the trip with very little sweat and few insects. It was still a tad too humid for my tastes, but I was able to spend a…

In limbo...

#depression #mentalhealth #blog #cemetery #goth #death #dark #libra #books

September is here. We’ve made it to the “-ber” months. I don’t feel as though I am coming back to life, yet, though. The summer slump rages on. Melancholy still has me in a cold grip. I am not experiencing any spooky excitation thus far. I do hope that changes soon. I want to do so many things. Write. Take pictures in a cemetery. Create spooky content for my social media. Unfortunately, my brain…

Homecoming...

#blog #dark #death #hometown #smalltown #roots #libra #books #goth #cemetery #life

Not only is the title of this post also the title of the first scary short story I wrote, but it is also a description of the past week of my life. Sadly, there was a loss in my family. A pretty significant one. Libra had to travel back to her town of origin. What an insightful trip it was. You actually can go home again, but nothing will be the same; not even the things that seem to never…

Feet in the grave, ass on the ground...

#books #reading #death #dark #life #libra #goth #work #summer #cemetery #taphophile

Life has a way of slowing down the creative process sometimes. I don’t write as much anymore. I don’t get out to do photography hardly ever. I feel stuck. True, this tends to happen to me in the hot summer months; I dread going outdoors at all, so trips to the gorgeous cemeteries become few and far between. It can be difficult to hunker down in cozy blankets on a dark, rainy day to write macabre…

Creating in chaos...

I apparently can’t understand terribly basic things. I tried an editing software today. One of those pricy ones that is supposedly user-friendly and has a gazillion features. So easy, everyone can use it. I am definitely not “everyone.” Total fail. I tried the free trial, which gave me access to every feature and the tutorials. Fat lot of good that did. An hour or so later, I had managed to…

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Well, my lovelies, you all must be in love with me by now. I haven’t blogged in over two months. Why, you ask? I wish I had some profound or heroic reason, but the truth is I suck as a blogger. Life gets in the way sometimes. The real world can be unforgivingly overwhelming, and often I have to choose between creating a new blog post or retaining what little…

Welcome back to the cemetery, my lovelies! Inspiration struck me this morning, and I have a spanking new wicked creation to entomb here for you all! I can’t say for certain that this is truly completed, but I’m happy with it so this might actually be the final version. Enjoy! My imagination runs away, Like a raindrop cascading down the window pane. I dream of you. You take me to the very…
