Oscar Wilde WOULD Be A Social Media Fiend. He'd Be Right At Home There. Anyhow, I Don't Have A Head For

Oscar Wilde WOULD be a social media fiend. He'd be right at home there. Anyhow, I don't have a head for business, so um, this is my marketing plan.

The Importance of Being Promotional

Apparently, we at Purrlock Holmes Books are not good at marketing, mostly because I put Oscat Wilde in charge. He IS an early influencer and social phenomenon, but he's completely forgotten to do our advertising.

Thanks for the tag @achildsfirstsorrow @frommarshtheycome and @angel-with-paper-wings , I'm honoured!

Last song: "A Milion Gruesome Ways to Die"

Favourite colour: I grew up among Plantone books and paper samples, there's no way I can choose ONE, my inner amateur graphic designer will curse me.

Last movie: Nosferatu 1922. Made my family watch it, they showed me a puppet from hell that supposedly looks like Orlok, and now I can't unsee it.

Last TV show: It's been a minute, Arcane...?

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet>savoury>spicy

Relationship status: On my way to be a crazy cat lady. Sans cats, but I'll fix that.

Last thing I googled: "Do people still say hip?" My inner Victorian is showing, isn't it?

Current obsession: Drawing things that make me anxious into as silly vampurr comics

Looking forward to: Like ACFS, I'm waiting for Del Toro's Frankenstein, finishing my vampurr book, posting my writing (at last), and menacing my friends when they wake up.

I think we've gotten into the PoTO artists' end of Tumblr, so we're probably double-tagging like mad, but I'll do it anyway. @leader-of-grandys @blackghostm2o @wowyzowy3 @lokislynx @windforkthewriter @thedrawingduke @v-jack-v @vladimirsangel @blackforrestpunk (I already know you two but there's always "better")

10 people I want to get to know better

Omg thank you much for tagging me! @dearwormw00d :3

Last song: You're not alone, Allison Russel

Favorite colour: dark green

Last movie: Lord of the rings: The fellowship of the ring

Last tv show: The Gilded Age

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet>Savory>Spicy

Relationship status: Single

Last thing i googled: hand holding pencil brush reference

Current obsession: One Piece, Nosferatu, Ethel Cain, my fem erik, Epic, Critical Role, studying the Enneagram again, Castlevania Nocture, The Apothecary Diaries, Witch Hat Atelier

Looking forward to: season 2 of the one piece live action, the oscars ( I want to see my beloved Fernanda Torres win), my necklaces that I've ordered, hadestown live recording, Superman, my next RPG session, Percy Jackson season 2! @insanely-creative-things @lepetitghostcat @fishing-rob @erik-christine @muirin007 @klausscrimshaw (ik it's not 10 but idk who to tag anymore, sorry ;-;)

Thank you, @greenfinchwriter , for tagging me in this tag game! I know we're supposed to reblog, but I can't hide long posts when they're shown on the "my posts" tab and that sometimes gets my goat, so I hope it's all right if I make a separate post!

Last TV show: Arcane

Last movie: Hammer's Dracula... I think? I've completely lost all sense of time.

Last book: A vampire romance in which the vampire, I kid you not, conjures cheesecakes.

Last thing I searched: Just checked. It's "bub meaning." I wish I could say it's "Sherlock Harpoon," but that was this morning.

Sweet/savoury/spicy: You are asking the gremlin who puts sugar in soup. Sweet.

Relationship status: extremely occupied with matchmaking my original characters.

Favourite drink: Cocoa, tea, soup, blood

Songs playing 24/7: "Judas" by Lady Gaga, "Love me normally" by Will Wood

Current favourite character: Van Helsing and Mina Harker (specifically from the Dracula book)

Fun activities I wish to get into: I want to try animating softwares, but it'll have to wait until I have a computer again. My antique PC is sadly ignoring me.

Last video game: Good grief, this ancient Undead hasn't played one in ages. Probably the Halloween game on Google Doodles?

Anyway, I drew Sherlock with a harpoon ages ago.

Oh, yes, I forgot to tag! @frommarshtheycome @windforkthewriter @t4z-0n-p4wz @whyisthereacentaur

I Really Like Your Poto Cat Drawings! They Are Very Very Cute! I Hope You Do Not Mind Me Drawing Them!

I really like your poto cat drawings! They are very very cute! I hope you do not mind me drawing them!

GREMLIN! FLOOF! Come and look at this!

I Really Like Your Poto Cat Drawings! They Are Very Very Cute! I Hope You Do Not Mind Me Drawing Them!

Mind?! You don't understand, I was giggling and physically, actually kicking my feet when I saw this!

Ooohhhh, it's so soft and sweet! Erik has his tiny forehead hairs and his tuxedo, and the Persian is big and fluffy and Putting Up with Shenanigans!

More Pharoga cats here, I NEED to draw more of the Daroga, it's unacceptable that I've neglected him, here's him having an interview with Leroux.

February First Was Hourly Comics Day! As Always, I'm Late To The Bandwagon.

February first was hourly comics day! As always, I'm late to the bandwagon.

That was my February second. To clarify, I didn't go to bed at 11 pm. I just ran out of space because I didn't realise until then I'd drawn 9 panels and not 12. My last braincell was not at home that day.

I Have Two Pieces Of Big News. One Good And One I'm Having A Mild Crisis Over.

I have two pieces of big news. One good and one I'm having a mild crisis over.

The good, I'm watching Nosferatu at a cinema tomorrow. At last, it's available where I am!

The crisis: my mum wants to watch it with me.

Serves me right for yapping at her about how ✨️artistic✨️ and ✨️unconventional ✨️ the film is. Weeeeeeelp.

C'est le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

I’m reading the Le Fantôme de L'Ôpéra. Here are some highlights of my Kindle highlights:

C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

The correct translation is actually something like 'she was reading a book with gold edging,' tranche meaning both 'edge (of a book)' and 'rasher (of bacon.)'

C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

(As a walking, talking dictionary, I am morally obliged to mention that the translation is actually ‘dandies’ not 'gentlemen.')

C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

You can probably guess that the last word means ‘unmask.’ And we all know how well that goes down with Erik.

C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻
C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

Poor Persian, though.

C'est Le 💅🏻Fantôme💅🏻

This segment was cut out of De Mattos's English translation, so I don't have an explanation for this. (See replies for Vlad's traslation!)

Being a Goth has really improved my French. First I kept writing French captions for my Interview with the Vampurr comics (examples here and here), and now I'm reading a French classic despite only understanding around 1 word in 5.

Okay, So, My Desk Collapsed Three Times Today, And OF COURSE Of All The Things To Fall Off And Smash,

Okay, so, my desk collapsed three times today, and OF COURSE of all the things to fall off and smash, it had to be a bottle of masking glue, and let me tell you that thing stinks.

When that was dealt with, my friend woke up and there was a lot of unawake texting and I started hyperfixating on a joint venture - all of this to say, I don't have the faculty to deal with my writing but you can have a look at the bits that are already there:

I dunno which chapter that is, help yourselves I guess I'm Undead.

The Phantom of the Opera (1990)

The Phantom Of The Opera (1990)

Monsieur. MONSIEUR. As someone doomed by the narrative, you have no right to be that precious. A lot of people will get hurt.

Vlad, how dare you put me through this. Je ne vais pas bien, pas du tout !

I talked about this adaptation here.

More Phantom: Cowboy (Cowcat?) Phantom, the Persian, Erik and his stuff.
