The Haunted Fembot Film club began in 2021 as an art, apparel, and accessories brand called Haunted Fembot. The goal was to draw as many of my favorite characters as possible, meet new internet friends, and create all the merch we never got to have as teens. Clem deserves a shirt, goddammit!
Today, my store touts the largest Buffy The Vampire Slayer merch collection with the widest array of characters on the web! ( I have no proof of this, but I dare you to prove me wrong). Our legion of Buffy fans, horror lovers, and fantasy nerds is growing by the nanosecond, helping HFFC to evolve into a media hub for our very own alt femme community!
Haunted Fembot is still a major part of HFFC, providing funds for much needed tools like microphones, cameras, shopify subscriptions, domains and the like. The brand offers over 350 original items that feature the women and queers that we know and love from Buffy, The Addams Family, Batman, The Craft, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Stranger Things and more. Visit the link below to grab a strange and unusual mug, tee, tank, mousepad, or journal. Everything is created by this very hardworking, creative film lover and all profits support HFFC in our plans for world domination.
As an after-effect of an extremely successful Stranger Things 4 watch through, complete with cinematic allusion splices, links to SR articles, and critical analysis of symbolism & story structure, Haunted Fembot spawned its own science fiction, horror, and Instagram community called Haunted Fembot’s Film Club (HFFC). As early as September 2022, HFFC will have a dedicated femblog & fempod.
I established The Show Tell Project in 2012. It is a WordPress literary magazine dedicated to sharing independent art, poetry, film and nonfiction work with particular interest paid to women and gender. In the early days, I updated several times a month with bi-weekly, themed content. As of late, it has become a home for my short fiction, poetry, and film/ TV articles. This project has a modest following of 300 bloggers, with email newsletter list of approximately the same size.
Anima in Bloom is my one-woman-operation, specializing in tailor-made crystal candles, gift sets, and ritual kits for self-discovery. All altar tools, crystal candles, and gift sets were conceptualized, designed, and hand-crafted by me.
I credit this passion project with teaching me the ins and outs of Shopify and social media through both successes, failures, and something-in-betweeners. Using every skill, talent, and resource available to me, I believed I could make something helpful, useful, colorful, bright, and joyful. I toiled day and night, learning through experience, the realities of business and marketing, creating magical candles, and building relationships with other magical femmes around the world until I had manifested my own, modest corner of the internet.
