13 Years Ago Monster High Taught Goths To Stand Up For Themselves

In 2010, when Monster High debuted on store shelves, nobody knew little goths would emerge from their coffins. 13 years later, goths have a bone to pick!

Fangtastic Goth Collecting Story

I am an obsessive collector of many things: True Blood, Hotel Transylvania The Series, Vlad the Impaler books, and Monster High. You know, goth things! When I was young, the only one I could relate to was Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family until I could read and discover Frankenstein.

The thing is, I was born in 1985, and so Monster High came into my life when I was twenty-five. I fell in love with Frankie Stein! I know the OCD Vampire doesn’t place Draculaura first. What gives? But Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is unique, and Frankie Stein is so adorable!

Us The Indie Community

In this social media era and indie author world, it is hard for writers to make their brand stay and it’s even harder to get noticed. However, there’s a place on Facebook where one can!

Likes, Join & Follows

Have you noticed how hard it is nowadays to get a “Like” on Facebook or get someone to “Join” your FB group or even “Follow” your page? It is quite hard as an indie author, artist, musician and any independent profession.

That’s because of the algorithm factor. Facebook has now paid advertisement, and that is hurting many of us independent and freelance people. Not only does Facebook hide promotional posts from “Professional Pages” they also hide the indie community when they pay for advertisement favorizing those who pay more.

Interview with Macabre Artist from Finland Tero Porthan
