The first part relates to my love of folk and fairy tales: Faer from traditional "faerie". The second part Gothika has NOTHING to do with the Halle Berry movie. It comes from my online name of GothicRowena. I am not a Goth kid. Gothic comes from Gothic romances, which were published by the hundreds during the 60s and early 70s, and most of them had the same cover format: a woman in some gown running away from a castle (mansion/lighthouse/barn/townhouse/treehouse/whatever) in which one window was lit. I always loved those covers, and the novels are so cheesy you could make nachos.
Rowena is my real first name, Heaven help me.
