Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turn people’s expectations on their heads by being a Goth with good manners with this fully illustrated guidebook to day-to-day Goth living. There’s more to being a Goth than throwing on some black velvet, dyeing your hair, and calling it a day (or a night). How do you dress with morbid flair when going to a job interview? Is there such a thing as growing too old to be a Goth? How do you explain to your grandma that it’s not just a phase? Jillian Venters, a.k.a. “the Lady of the Manners,” knows how to be strange and unusual without sacrificing politeness and etiquette. In Gothic Charm School, she offers the quintessential guide to dark decorum for all those who have ever searched for beauty in dark, unexpected places, embraced their individuality, and reveled in decadence . . . and for families and friends who just don’t understand.
