Spooky Inspiration

Tunnel under the Neuschwanstein Castle
Happy Halloween Everyone!

 I am a huge fan of Halloween and the whole fall season. I love supernatural related stories, movies, the leaves changing colors, spooky decorations, black cats, giving out candy, costumes (of course), and more! Spooky inspiration is all around us.

 Every year I want to create my own costume but then it's October and I never have enough time to make one from scratch. Does this ever happen to anyone else? Hopefully next year I will get my act together for 2019 and actually make my own Halloween costume. I would love to do something that looks easy but has a ton of details like one of the Sanderson sisters looks. 

 I currently have a few projects I want to start working on, however I also want to snag some on sale Halloween printed fabric for some basic vintage inspired silhouette dresses. So not entirely sure what my next project will be!

My story centered around a very femme fatale main character with lots of buried secrets.

After creating what should would look like, having an idea of her voice, her outfits, her drive, everything about her, I still needed the...

Malotke Writes - Updated Website

Guess who got new headshots done? Me! I've been continuing to submit various written pieces (poems, drabbles, flash fiction, short stories, etc.) and have been needing headshots for some of the submissions. Since I have been using my photo from senior year of college (shot for the fashion show program) I had decided that maybe it was time for some new, and way more recent, photos.  Pictured left is one of my favorite photos from the photography session. I've already updated my website using a bunch of the photos and I've sent them off for social media / marketing for upcoming interviews & anthologies that I'm included in.  Here is a link to my writing website: Malotke Writes
