'Who needs to fit in anyway? We all just need to find our people and a place that we can be exactly who we are, unapologetically.'

Check out Lizzie Lovejoy 🎨🌈's fantastic review of Audrey Cook's Bus Stop Goths for narc_magazine! 😍👇

Eeeeeee it’s only my first review!! “An incredible production from the feral mind of Audrey Cook” absolutely CREASED ME!!
Lizzie Lovejoy 🎨🌈 what an absolutely gorgeous write up!! Thank you so much!🥰🥰

Did you know that between 1310 and 1314, Mary Bruce, the sister of Scottish King Robert the Bruce, was imprisoned at the Newcastle Castle Keep?
