Sorry I’ve been so MIA! (There’s been some crazy awesome stuff going on.)
Sorry it’s been so long! There’s been a ton of awesome and amazing things going on in my life.
On the writing front, I’m now a regular writer for Medium — which has resulted in a *major* boost to my writing income. (*If you’re a writer who is not writing on Medium, I don’t know what you’re doing.*)
On the *other* professional front, we’ve finally released our drag event app — @dragr — and are over the moon with the reception it’s receiving in the community.
Hope you’re all doing well and getting down to all the writing. The world needs your story, so don’t give up

Title: I can never die
Inspired by: Dragula—Lissie
When I originally set out to plan for this very special Month of Fear, I was fully expecting myself to dig deep into song meanings and lyrics, analyzing each line as if I was doing my English homework. However, it struck me that what is special about music is the way it makes me feel, the way some phrases resonate where others do not and the imagery that comes up simply by listening. To me songs can have deep meaning that is completely different from whatever the creator intended. So while the original Dragula is about a car, I think (I had to ask a search engine of my choice), Lissie’s cover of the song reminded me of the feeling of bursting at the seams, of being clogged with too much energy and feeling for one body to hold. I always think of it as destructive. Of the scene in a movie where power explodes from the hero or villain, setting streets on fire and blowing up cars. I was wondering, though—does it have to be? Could it be creative instead? (That’s the flowers. Please appreciate the deep meaning behind this demoness.)

Note: True to form I’m using the Month of Fear to stretch myself creatively by trying out new techniques and tools. This year I’m doing so as part of a creative development project sponsored by the BKM, VG Bildkunst and Neustart Kultur. Thank you for having my back!

Vander Von Odd- Dragula, S1 EP5 (Performance challenge)
Our friends DisasterinaandAve Rose are ruling over a midnight movie underworld in their new Amazon Prime series SADO PSYCHIATRIST, and we’re always so excited to see what happens next!
The show is exactly what it sounds like! The evil genius of Dr. Sado (played by Disasterina) cannot be constrained to morality or professional protocols, and anyone who crosses her path risks becoming part of her experimentation in the fields of pain, fear, and humiliation!
While we’ve already created a signature scent for Disasterina, the sensory overload of the show has got us wondering what other scents Dr. Sado might keep in her boudoir… and having looked back through these various perfumes and sprays, can we just say WOW, we must be real sickos ourselves. Can anyone recommend a doctor?
It’s not just the diagnosis, it’s also the cure!
“Smoky rum and black tobacco with a whisper of steamy leather with a splash of crystalline chardonnay, layered over a sensual, sweet, and deceptively magnetic base of tonka.“
Know your history! We stand on the shoulders of giantesses.
“A Patron Goddess of all Dominatrixes, Wanda is the breathtakingly beautiful sable-wrapped marble queen of Sacher-Masoch’s fantasies. Her scent is a deep red merlot with a faint hint of leather, sexual musk and body heat over crushed roses, violets and myrtle.”
BRIGHT RED DILDO Perfume&Hair Gloss
This one’s for external use only.
“Red leather and honey.“
She knows what she wants, and she gets it!
“White amber, vanilla musk, white tea, ambergris, gardenia, and chrome.“
IMPLACABLE BEAUTIFUL TYRANT Hair Gloss
Is it possible to say more with just two adjectives and a noun?
“Golden amber, frankincense, white ginger, and oudh.“
AMBER AND STEEL HOOKS Hair Gloss
Perfect for the mistress who likes to keep ‘em in suspense. (Get it??)
“With a touch of oak bark and bourbon vanilla.“
LICH’S LABORATORY Home & Linen Spray
Those of us who live the Lab life know the impossibility of keeping work and pleasure completely separate. This spray sets the stage for experimentation of all kinds, no matter where you are!
“Hissing vials of acid, swirls of thick incense, creeping mosses, flecks of grave loam, and noxious potions clutter the blackened stone biers of an abandoned burial vault.“
Naturally, we had to include the brackish blend we created in collaboration with Disasterina — Dr. Sado herself! Apply strategically to the areas near your tidepools, and enjoy the view as your subjects go literally mad with desire.
“Slithering tentacles of kelp and seaweed absolute, draped over a shard of salt-crusted driftwood.“
We didn’t get around to making a SWAMP SKANK promo when the scent debuted last year, so here she is in all her kelp-covered glory. (Subscribe to the Lab’s YouTube channel while you’re at it!)
And here’s the perfume: “Slithering tentacles of kelp and seaweed absolute, draped over a shard of salt-crusted driftwood.”
