Let's go old-school internet and hold a conversation.

‘Every Snowflake is Different (Just Like You)’

24/12/2012

Happy Almost-Birthday, Jesus

Merry Christmas, snowflakes. Original, slightly clearer version, with a blog-rant by Tim here. Mishty and I haven’t finished #ProjectSnowflake yet, but the original is here. “As in previous years, all proceeds from the sale of this song during the month of December 2012 will go to the National Autistic Society (NAS).” Head over to iTunes,… Continue reading

I’m supposed to be blogging really important things, but Strictly‘s on and we’re watching Star Wars later so you can read my DeviantART post instead: The computer put the Fifty Shades adds back in. Eh. It’s here. Basically: please please do something! I don’t care how you link it to me – Twitter, email, a comment,… Continue reading

**UPDATE** We are now only accepting images due to technology and time restraints. But don’t let that stem your creativity! Original post: Since it’s Mikey Way’s birthday I thought I’d write something MCR-related for a change (there’s a Mikey art appreciation post on The Webways).

Let’s close the door on the rest of the internet.

Francesca Astraea here.

When I began this blog in 2009, I was a teenager. That’s why you’ll find some posts have been hidden behind a paywall. I was an incredibly different, less eloquent person when I was a teen, so if you want to read the thoughts of that teenager, you can join the No. 1 Readers’ Club for access.

What will you find here now?

This blog continues to evolve with me. My favourite topics are books and reading, travel adventures, the extensive works of up and coming rock band My Chemical Romance and the occasional update about my life and work as an author and scriptwriter. I’m also interested in digital minimalism, how we can solve environmental issues and why it’s probably a better idea to make a cup of tea than it is to shout at people you disagree with.

Speaking of tea… Make a cup and settle in.

Leave a comment on posts to continue the conversation and tell me your favourite MCR song! Oh, and while you’re here: this is a no-gen-AI household. You may not put any of my posts through an LLM. If you’re going to email me or write a comment, do it yourself.

Here’s how we can stay in touch:
