About Me

Links to all things Me:

My Personal Blog
Because I occasionally think about things other than games (I know-- for shame!)
Currently doing a 20-year history of Nine Inch Nails, because apparently I don't have enough projects that are HUGE TIME-SUCKING MONSTERS. Anyway, I try to keep anything that's videogames-related on Gaming Goddess, but there's a little bit of inevitable crossover.

My graphic novel, Sterling
There is some videogame-related stuff in Sterling, particularly Final Fantasy, but that's not really the focus. Meant for adults, so don't say I didn't warn you:).

My Twitter I'm very conscious of twitter-spamming, so I try to tweet only when I update one of my blogs or comics. Some people can get away with constantly tweeting charming little witticisms and it's neat, but I think if you have any interest in my twitter at all, it should be useful, never a nuisance.

About the name Gaming Goddess: No, I do not have delusions of grandeur! At least, not about games!
The origin of GG is this: My boyfriend's Mom is REALLY good at Space Invaders and games like that, leading me to dub her the "8-bit Goddess". We decided that 8-bit Goddess would be a really good name for the gaming blog that I wanted to start, except it would be false advertising since I personally suck at 8-bit games. So I changed it to the more general Gaming Goddess-- so I'm good at some type of games, I just don't have to specify which ones:).

Of course, if my boyfriend's awesome mom wants to start a blog, she can be the 8-bit Goddess, and I will bow to her in humble submission.

Currently Playing:
I have decided to change this section to only what is in my consoles AT THE MOMENT as opposed to every game I'm technically in the middle of. Accuracy FTW.

DSi: Final Fantasy IV (It's amazing! Why did I wait so long?)
DS: ARMY OF MOOGLES, I mean, Final Fantasy VI
PS2: Odin Sphere
PSOne: Azure Dreams, Parasite Eve, Tomb Raider

Latest Fan Art:

Yeah, something new! Rydia's cool, people complain about the graphics in the new DS version of FFIV but I love the way the characters look...well, except for Rosa. The girl could use pants.

About Me:
I'm a starving artist/freelance writer/comic book artist/insert other vocation that makes very little money. If you're on Destructoid, chances are I am older than you. That kind of pisses me off.

Anyway, I'm working on some projects that I think might be of interest to some Dtoid readers, but I think I'll keep most of that stuff in my profile section, so the Cblogs won't be taken up with self-promotional posts from me. I'll add the info to my profile when I start my new comic and things like that.

Shortblog: FFVII the Musical Score (it's a sickness) GamingGoddess | 11:06 AM on 09.12.2009 5 comments

Since recording Tifa's theme, I can't stop thinking about more songs to mutilate-- I mean adapt-- for a theoretical FFVII musical. These are some of the ideas that occurred to me: Cloud: Thanks for the Memories (Fallout Boy) Tifa: On My Own (Andrew Lloyd Weber)(done) Aeris: Like A Prayer (Madonna) Cid: Rocket Man (Elton John) Red XIII: Eye of the Tiger (???) Barret: ???? Yuffie: Take it Off (The Donnas) OR Material Girl (Madonna) Vincent: Thriller (Micheal Jackson) Cait Sith: Tainted Love ("First I spied on you...now I hide with you") Sephiroth: Closer (Nine Inch Nails) Jenova: The World Is Not Enough (Garbage) Lucretia: I Dreamed A Dream (Andrew Lloyd Weber) Zack: I Will Remember You (Sarah McLaughlin) Elmira: Going Under (Evanescence) Reno: Smooth Criminal (Micheal Jackson) Don Corneo: Androgeny (Garbage) Gold Chocobo: Pink Elephants on Parade ("Gold Chocobo at the race") from Dumbo Joe (The dude with the black Chocobo): ????? Emerald Weapon: Enter Sandman Whether or not I'm actually going to write or record any more I couldn't tell you, but this idea has taken over my brain for the last 24 hours. This is probably a form of sickness, but I don't wanna get better. Anyway, if you have any ideas for Barret please share:). I'm thinking his song should be from some manly band like Megadeath or something, but unfortunately I don't know too many songs like that.
