Voting for me to become the next Face of Horror is a great thing for the following reasons:
One: I’m a huge lifelong horror fan and also have been a horror content creator, horror comedian, horror writer/poet, horror artist, horror photographer/model, horror gamer/streamer and a indie horror filmmaker/producer/actress/screenwriter/director trying to get my work out there for a while now but with the pandemic and then the strikes that’s been happening recently (I’m a WGA/SAG-AFTRA/DGA member), it’s been rough. I’m also a horror film/movie/TV show/shop/product/game/literature reviewer and podcaster as well. My love for horror runs deep, and I feel that I would be a good fit for the contest.
Secondly, the $13,000 would help a lot with the townhouse/stream room renovations, due to the fact that we as a community where I live in Vermont had a pretty bad flood earlier this summer back in July and it took a really long time to rebuild and it’s not even finished yet, getting the disability equipment I need along with a service animal dog due to my disabilities and health issues deteriorating recently and giving some of the money to a charity of my choosing and helping with paying off only two credit cards, and I’d be able to afford to get at least one of my indie horror film projects up and going and have it ready to start working on it in 2024 (if the strikes is over by then).
Three, not only winning this contest would be huge for me, but it’d be huge for the communities that I represent, because this would mean that I would officially be the FIRST EVER DEAFBLIND, NEURODIVERGENT AND AUTISTIC NONBINARY TRANS woman (yes, I’ve had surgeries and whatnot, stop asking questions — it’s getting annoying lol) to ever compete in this contest and hopefully win the whole thing! That means I would literally be making HISTORY (well, in my case, HERSTORY) so my communities would be very happy about this if I won and I could very well be a excellent role model for all involved, and most importantly, there’s gonna be several media outlets involved that’ll be writing about me or interviewing me if they found out about me and knew that I’d be making history (HERSTORY) and attempt to do something that no one has ever done before in this contest.
Four, if I win, which I’m hoping to, based on my status and rankings, etc., I’d like to be able to make a difference and help plan and assist for next year’s contest and maybe even offer some input to help improve the way the voting system is set up, and also suggest some great ideas to the people running the contest to allow past winners and runner-ups to collaborate with contestants and give advice/suggestions and make fun/silly/terrifyingly awesome videos to help them succeed in the contest as well. That would be cool.
And finally, I’m a former cancer survivor (TWICE) and I have survived a lot of real life horrors that I’ve been to therapy for and I’m very passionate about the B+ Foundation that the Face of Horror Contest is supporting and promoting, so I’m hoping that by asking for your votes, you’ll eventually get me to where I need to be over the next few rounds and I would be happy to proudly represent the various communities that I’m a part of, including the horror community, doing you all proud and supporting such an amazing cause.
P.S., I intend to not just upload new photos every round (mostly in the beginning and towards the end of each round), but I intend to create a lot of fun, entertaining and horrifyingly excellent videos on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Threads and YouTube in the beginning of each round and the last one or two days of each round to not just encourage votes, but to entertain, make you laugh/scream/cry/jump/smile and enjoy the show along the way.
Thank you for everything and thank you for getting me this far in the Face of Horror contest. Plus, it would be cool to finally meet the LEGENDARY KANE HODDER and cross it off my bucket list before I’m 40 years old. Did I mention I’m turning 35 in a month? In fact, one of the rounds scheduled coming up in this contest lands right around my birthday on 10/26!
