Leah Rose FTW!

Hi friends! Thanks for coming and peeking over here, I know facebook is a lot easier to check in on but we all know how FB feels about long posts, keywords, and basically anything other than not taking my money, hahaha/sad Anyway, let's just jump into it- my announcement for today is I'm beginning a Patreon account. My emotions on Patreon are pretty conflicted a lot of times, I have to be honest, and I'm sure you can understand what I mean if you've been online and seen all the backlash that some people get from starting Patreons. I've always been afraid that my work wasn't good enough, consistent enough, or popular enough to warrant anything like this. But then my personal (financial and time restraint)  circumstances changed, and my options were: 1. Stop cosplay nearly entirely, disappoint you and myself, and lose something that brings me and many other people a spark of joy.  or 2. Ask for help, be able to continue, and with the money that I receive...

Hi guys! Sorry for the most recent spammy posts, I'm trying a few new platforms for making crossposting easier so I don't have to reply on facebook and I don't miss anyone who is missing the smaller social media sites. I've decided that once every few weeks (we'll see how this goes to determined the timing!) I'll be making one post here with the images and commentary I've made over Facebook in that timeframe. Without further ado, here's my facebook posts from the past weekish! EEEEEEEEVIIIIIIIIIIIL Cobesplay is LEMONS!!!!! I'm so glad you guys enjoyed my silly costume last weekend. It was kind of unintentional, but worked out for the best! 4-15-16 I saw my Dasha Cosplay today and we were fishies!!!! Come see both of us tomorrow at Other Realms Ltd - The Comic & Game Specialist and party and meet Stan Lee!!! We won't be fishies tomorrow tho. 4-16-16 FAMILY PHOTO really important schedule change for tomorrow, Stan will be here...

I'll be the first to admit, I HATE pranks. However, the cosplay community over the past 2 years has banded together to make silly, harmless fun things to hopefully make the community laugh. And this year, we did it for a greater good and to draw attention to an important cause! MY N00DZ WERE LEAKED OMFG So hundreds of us got together to post clickbait-ey things and badly shopped our images to pixellated perfection. You'd be shocked how many people didn't get the joke, even with the obvious silliness of it! But if you went to the bottom of the page, you'd see a disclaimer. I don't have the disclmainer on hand, but please see below for the NEW updated site and I'll paste in the text as well: WWW.COSPLAYSCANDALS.COM _______________________________________________________________ Happy (day-after) April Fool’s Day!! The prank is over, but most of you picked up on the joke right away! We really thought the puns our team came up with added to the hu...

I had a specific topic I was GOING to write about today, but I just don't really feel like opening up the nostalgia and emotional confusion right now, so let's just have a bit of a talk! First, let's talk tail! The support on my Indiegogo has been so heartwarming. I really appreciate everyone who's helped, even is it's just with kind words. Here's the link if you haven't seen it already! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/omg-a-real-mermaid-will-swim-for-a-little-help/ My last blog post details the whole situation, so I'll just direct you to that instead of repeating myself again. Please note, though, that I did have to remove every single detail of the story as it was misconstrued as being slanderous. Due to legal and physical threats, I had to remove quite a bit. It detracts from the story for sure, but I'm not going to deal with the drama anymore. I'm exhausted. UGH, happier things now please! So I'm in my next to last semester ...

Please forgive the echo chamber that is my social media right now, but I feel like the best way to get this open and out there is to keep my message consistent. Plus, I did work hard on the wording of this, so why fix what's not broken? Indiegogo link here! http://igg.me/at/leahrosemermaid/x/4295825 But in case you can't clicky through right now, here's the story. Das me While I really recommend you watch the video  https://youtu.be/oOhSu6xEPXY     because  1. it's easier to explain out loud  2. it was a BEAUTIFUL day outside!  3. I don't do videos often so that's like historic in and of itself  here is the TLDNR of my situation, my project, and how to can has help!  *Edited to save confusion and for brevity* I had a prospective job that didn't work out, though it did seem finalized to me. No hard feelings to the prospective employer. I ordered the tail for this job specifically, but since it didn't pan out, I'm no...

Insert obligatory note about being slow to update here!  It's always so hard to think of full interesting things to write. What do you think- tutorials? Con stories? Gotta give me some idea of what you want to see! I just need to make sure that people are checking in here- god knows social media like Facebook and IG are hard enough to mess with. Anyway, I'm currently sitting in the living room of Courtney Leigh and Alex Davis, an amazing cosplay/photo/video team that happens to be some of my best friends. I stay here while I'm in Phoenix quite a bit, they're the best. Go find their internets and love on them. Same with Anabel Martinez, Allen Amis Productions, and Firelight Cosplay/Amber Brite. Just look at deez faces. Amazing AZ Comic Con was last weekend, and I visited my parents in between then and now. I love my AZ trips, but am I ready to be home to my Mallowmew and the beach! I'll post a massive photo dump soon, but for now, I reeeeally want to ...
