The Intro

Greetings fellow bloggers and blog readers.

Like people pitted with the epithets ghoulish and weird, I absolutely adore all things dark and seemingly strange when it comes to what I surround myself with. Though, it's not unusual for me to display my fanatical type of love towards things regarded as kawaii or even mainstream either.

I like what I like, and what I like is crafts, gaming, movies, sci-fi and Hallowe'en... You will very rarely catch me deviating from these subjects.
I appreciate thoughtful writing, and though at times I can be very wordy and my grammar might leave a lot to be desired, you can be sure that I make every attempt to instill my heart into every post and every word I lay before you; in a world where quick and easy is abundant and much ado about nothing and everything is gone, I'd like to think my corner is a place where those seeking stories about mundanities in the life of a strangling (to which my life has plenty of! Hah!) can find some solace.

You might have noticed I sew. A lot. One could say I live and die to sew.
I haven't had any formal training or personal tutelage in the subject of sewing, a topic that seems to dominate my blog more than I really intend, but c'est la vie when you're as passionate about a particular subject.
I taught myself to sew (and still yet) through observational deduction, books, and of course, the occasional online video-- this is not meant as a boast, more so an embarrassing admission to what is likely a mountainous task of undoing the profusion of bad form I have inadvertently garnered through the action of becoming self taught.

I do hope you find inspiration here, in the blog of your neighborhood eccentric archetype!
