Basic Info| Name: | Bonnie Burton |
|---|---|
| Birthdate: | 1972-07-12 |
| Location: | San Francisco, California, United States |
| Website: | Grrl.com |
BioI'm a blogger, vlogger, author, editor, journalist, craftster and geek grrl as well as the founder of the pop culture site Grrl.com.
Books I've written:
My writing is in the women's comic anthology The Girls' Guide to Guy's Stuff published from Friends of LuLu.
I've also written the magazines BUST, Craft, Geek Monthly, Star Wars Insider, Wired and Organic Gardening, among others.
I hosted the music video shows "Teletunes" (Denver) and "Subculture" (San Francisco), as well as 2 video podcast shows called Ask Bonnie and Ask @Sock -- the video archive can be found on Youtube and Myspace Video. Sometimes I end up on TV as a "pop culture media pundit" for CNN, E! and BBC. I'm featured in Entertainment Weekly magazine (Oct. 13, 2006) for my Bettie Page fandom.
My dayjob is for Lucasfilm writing for starwars.com. And no, I don't see Darth Vader at the watercooler. But I do interview bands and celebs such as Nine Inch Nails, actor Hal Sparks, Richard Patrick, Snow Patrol, actor Seth Green, Jane Wiedlin, Sean Lennon, Mogwai, Fall Out Boy, Ween, director J.J. Abrams, Kid Koala, Cut Chemist, Coheed and Cambria, Slipknot, Ash, Anthrax, UNKLE, pro wrestler Chris Jericho, The Decemberists and many more about why they love the saga in a section called Star Wars Rocks.
Archives can be found here.
And I do a lot of geeky crafts too like Bossk Bean Art portraits, Chewbacca Tissue Box Cozies, Mouse Droid Cat Nip Toys, Action Figure Wreaths and more as you can see here in Star Wars Drawing Tutorials and Crafts. Archives of crafts can be found here.
