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 fewContinue reading “There’s life in the old girl yet…”

In limbo…
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 doContinue reading “In limbo…”
Homecoming…
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. WhatContinue reading “Homecoming…”
Feet in the grave, ass on the ground…
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 fewContinue reading “Feet in the grave, ass on the ground…”
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.Continue reading “Creating in chaos…”
Wandering through the darkness…
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 realContinue reading “Wandering through the darkness…”
Once upon a midnight dreary…
Today was a good day, my lovelies! I took a little field trip outside the cemetery to the Edgar Allan Poe museum in Richmond! It was such an incredible place! As a writer of the macabre, I had to pay my respects to one of the masters. I took quite a few pictures, and possiblyContinue reading “Once upon a midnight dreary…”
Dream a little dream…
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, LikeContinue reading “Dream a little dream…”
Stopping kindly for Death…
Hello, my lovelies! Yours truly took another trip to the Hollywood Cemetery early this morning. It is my new favorite place, for sure. I took along my journal, and discovered a new spot in which to write. I must have sat for at least an hour, taking it all in. This will definitely become aContinue reading “Stopping kindly for Death…”
Spending a quiet Sunday with Death…
I ventured outside my own cemetery this morning to a gorgeous, old cemetery nearby. As fortune would have it, I now live just a short drive from Hollywood Cemetery in Virginia. This place is unimaginably beautiful. I don’t even have proper words to describe what I saw today. This is by far my favorite cemeteryContinue reading “Spending a quiet Sunday with Death…”
