Hot Witches Through Herstory




* Lady Godiva

‪Her story dates back to the 11th century. She was married to Leofric ‪III Earl of Mercia who had earned his title through success in business. They moved to Coventry in central England where in 1043 they founded and funded an abbey in Honor of Eunice, and early martyr slain ‪by the R‪omans. The abbey soon became a social focus for the town, where her husband used his high position in business to impose what Godiva viewed as excessive taxes. She tried to persuade him to lower‪ the taxes for the townspeople, to which he responded that he would if she rode naked down main street. He was shocked when she agreed for the sake of the people. The day Godiva‪ made her historic ride, the townspeople stayed inside their houses in honor of her modesty. Except for peeping Tom. Still to this day Coventry celebrates an annual Godiva festival.



And, if you haven't already, check out our hilarious infomercial starring Isabelle to promote Handbook for Hot Witches!

Blessed Be and Happy Holidays!

GLOBAL WARMING AND FRANKENSTORM...A little advice and encouragement to all who suffers from Hurricane Sandy:

We were born into this system in which we had no say in the making. A century ago they thought they were doing the best they could to improve the conditions of the human race, but they set the system up wrong and now we, the animals , and all of nature must pay. These kinds of colossal storms breaking out don't even need to be a wake up call or a reminder to the error of our ways as a race. We are already well aware of global warming and the error of our ways, but what can we do to stop the spiral? Changing little habits every day and being aware of our impact on a bigger level helps but essentially our system is broken and its going to take a lot to break the old patterns and build anew. Nostradamus and other profits predict the end and rebirth of our time on earth now. How we operate is not sustainable, but their prophecy did not say it was the end of the world, as so many have misquoted, actually it is a new era.

The age of Pisces (the fish) and Jesus is waning and a new era, Aquarius, a time of femininity and thinking out of the box is upon us.

We can no longer go by the rules of man, for they have always been wrong, when we go by the rules of Nature and understand what this is the ultimate governing power are we can live in harmony, though in the beginning it may be more difficult to shift. May the Goddess bless and protect you my friends in the eastern sea board and all of those effected by Hurricane Sandy. Find peace in your hearts and safety for your selves and homes. We are all in this together!

Magic Blessings,

Dame Darcy

The fun isn't over yet! Don't forget my art show is also this week.

And I want to give a shout out to my patient, wonderful gallerist and friend who also wrote a mystery novel. It's only $2.99 right now and a portion of the proceeds are being donated to animal charity. It's a good cause my friends! Check out her novel on amazon:

They start right at nine so don't miss 'em cause they go to sleep early.

Anitra Opera Diva, whose name says it all, will also be performing.


Fiona Horne, a hot celebrity witch from LA, Agent Ribbons from Austin TX and Ophelia De La Fuente are more performers to look forward to. Last but not least, Skippy Spiral and Dame Darcy :) perform sea shanties and Electrococo music in their band Death By Doll. The list continues with DJ Peter Dark, MC Nicodemus, dancers Lila, Tara, Caroline, Acid Poptart, and more! Look for Gothic Lolita Pirate Fashions by Kambriel.

Make sure not to miss the Savannah Pagan Pride Festival the very next day, http://www.facebook.com/savannahpaganpride?ref=ts

I'm going to have a booth signing books and Death By Doll will be performing at this magical event that goes on all day! Thanks to Adriana Iris Boatwright, PPD coordinator and Head Witch in Savannah GA. My witchy gal pal, Fiona Horne will be there as well.

Along with getting ready for this crazy fun-filled weekend, I've been doll crafting with my interns and getting ready for my window display in Forbidden Planet in NYC!


The weekend of October 12 is going to be a crazy one as well. The New York journey continues. With the Forbidden Planet window display, I'm also having an art show with the lovely Alix Sloan of Sloan Fine Art and I'll be signing books and supporting my fellow artists at Comic Con. Hope to see you all at any of the events mentioned!

Mermaid Tarot and Hot Witch Tees Galore!

Hello everyone!

The Handbook For Hot Witches tour has officially begun! As most of you hopefully know by now, the book was released on Tuesday which was a very happy day! Things are going pretty well right now, the House of Dame Darcy is finally up and running with lots of dolls, comics, and art for every Savannah pedestrian strolling by to check out.

I'm learning how to use the tricky square credit card reader (technology blows my mind) and I love meeting and talking with interesting people at the store.

[caption id="attachment_351" align="alignleft" width="225"] That's me hard at work in the studio! :)[/caption]

The studio is looking great, the floors and walls are tastefully painted pink and blue and there's plenty of natural light with the big windows- it's just how I wanted it, like stepping into an elaborately decorated psychedelic birthday cake!

[caption id="attachment_359" align="alignright" width="225"] I found a mannequin too! Perfect for modeling my newly printed tees[/caption]

I've delved a little more into the printing business with my new Mermaid, and Hot Witch tees. You've gotta check them out! They're so soft and cozy and I even have my own custom Dame Darcy tag inside! Look at me, ma! ;) I feel really good about it all.

[caption id="attachment_360" align="alignnone" width="300"] We have A LOT available...[/caption]

Yesterday, I put my Dame Darcy Mermaid Tarot deck to use by reading my beloved friend and business partner, Beth's, tarot.

[caption id="attachment_361" align="alignnone" width="225"] Despite my concerned look, I think everything is going to turn out OK for her ;)[/caption]

[caption id="attachment_356" align="alignleft" width="214"] The invitation for Naughty Nautical Nite designed by our amazing graphic designer, Emory Davis[/caption]

I do need to put down the Tarot though because these next few weeks are going to be super hectic for me! I'll have my awesome crew with me so hopefully they can keep me sane...beginning September 1st I'm going to the Decatur book festival in Atlanta and then onto several Pagan Pride festivals in Jacksonville, Savannah, Athens, and Augusta-whew! I'll be performing a Cabaret at the Savannah Pagan Pride with my dear friends and magic witch sisters, Adriana Iris Boatwright, Juli, and Fiona Horne -- I am so ready for some good times with my girls. And then everyone in Savannah needs to get ready for the Naughty Nautical Night at The Spare Time on September 28th. There's going to be belly dancing, a DJ and probably lots of weirdness, which is OK with me!

LOTS OF LOVE
Before I go out and enjoy my Saturday, I just want to say thank you to the Goddess and my wonderful friends who manifest in her many forms, particularly Beth Vantosh, Skippy Spiral, Claire Clayton, Kyle Hoover and all the creatures of the Earth, the spirits of the elements, and the spirits of Calhoun Square.
May we all live in peace, abundance and light, love, liberty and life!
