    Hello

    Lovely Blog! Give me a shout if you ever want to collaborate on anything to do with Gothic Fashion… I do all the fb and blog stuff for Necessary Evil and Kate’s Clothing, so I think we could come up with some great content on the subject 🙂

    Hope to hear from you!

    Hi Victoria, some great articles on your blog. I am coordinating Gothic Angels blog – http://www.blog.gothicangelclothing.co.uk/. I was studying for a more serious blog series around harassment or stereotypes which brought me to you. I am also looking for guest contributors. If either are of interest Id be very happy to hear from you:)

  5. Hi!

    I just wanted to reach out and enquire as to how one might contact you? I believe we might have some media/materials that might interest your readers as we are making a new vampire film that will launch it’s funding campaign in February. Would love to talk to you more about it! Please let me know! (You can check out our facebook page below).

    Best,

    Apologies for emailing out of the blue. I am writing from Unbound, a crowd-funded publishing company that are dedicated to putting authors directly in contact with readers.

    I heard about your blog and I know how popular it is, so I wanted to let you know about a book we are planning that you might like/write about/tweet etc. Written by legendary music journalist John Robb “Goth: The True Story of Post-Punk”, re-examines one of the most fascinating musical periods in recent history – the time just after punk. Sadly, many of the best bands from this period have never had the recognition they deserve – the goth scene has been removed from music’s historical narrative. This book will be a major work that redresses this oversight and underlines the cultural power of, arguably, the key movement of that period.

    You can find more about the book here http://unbound.co.uk/books/goth-the-true-story-of-post-punk

    If you felt inclined to write about, tweet or draw any attention to this book we would be forever in your debt! Also if you were to talk about the book we would put your name in the back under the Supporter List as a way to say thank you.

    Best wishes,

    Georgia
