About me: Greetings, you’ve found my networking hub for my current magazine and fanzine writing projects. My Nome de Plume is Doctor Raven and I’m a struggling writer and an advocate for the Goth and Industrial scene. Currently I'm working on an adventure in Zine and Magazine writing and attempting to network with bands across the country to promote the community that has allowed me a place to call home. Here is where you will find updates of my current projects along with the somewhat coherent thoughts that I have posted on this wonderful tool. This “My Space”… It is my goal to interview and network with bands and promoters within all the branches of Dark Rock scene be they Goth, Industrial, EBM, Darkwave, Romantigoth, Deathrock, Psychobilly, Voodoobilly, or just dark experimental music and to further the Goth and Underground community. If you have a Band CD for me to review or a Publication looking for submissions, please drop me a line and God bless the Children of the Damned. Dza Devlesa.
Who I'd like to meet: First and always; I want to meet other Writers, Bands, Magazine Publishers, and Producers to continue to network within this Mysanthropic subculture. I am willing to dedicate time and energy to provide quality music reviews and interviews with bands that are making their mark in a Genre I call home, the Goth and Industrial Community.
Secondly; I am interested in meeting and networking with other Improv performers.
Lastly; I support Missions to the Romany (Gypsy) People both in the US and abroad. If you have information about any of the above, please drop me a line.
