Got some last minute extra images done for the book, and since I’m a fighting game fangirl to the highest degree, I gave them character select screens for their mini-bios!

I’ve been so busy that I’ve been forgetting to update Tumblr >.< but for once, I’m ahead of schedule (kinda) so… here’s where I’ll be this weekend!!!
This is my first time at this con and I’m excited to be a guest! I’ll have books from my urban fantasy series with my partner, and I’ll have prints from my upcoming series “magnifiqueNOIR.” I’ll also be taking pre-orders on the book itself!
Hope to see you there :)

There’s a city. It’s like most other cities. Buildings. People. Monsters who can destroy sidewalks by vomiting acid onto the ground, and an elite group of black, queer, magical girls who work to put those monsters in their place.
See? Just like most other cities.
Bree Danvers would’ve compared it to a video game, maybe a cartoon or comic book, except black girls are rarely the heroines of the story. But there her heroine stood, plus sized and wonderful, rocking a dazzling amount of purple and defeating monsters with galactic sparkles. Galactic Purple, that was her name, and soon, Bree was joining her on a magical adventure full of transformations and after school battles to defend a city like most other cities.
And soon, others would join them, and each one would be magical in their own way… give or take a few bumps on the acid covered ground.

From the wifey: So a while ago a friend tagged me on a gorgeous picture that Ashleigh Beevers Art @mustashleigh mustashleigh had done, and on a whim, I reached out to see if they’d do some art for Magnifique Noir.
THEN THIS GORGEOUSNESS HAPPENED!!!
I cannot contain all the Black Girl Magic I just CANNOT!!! WHY ARE MY ARTISTS SO WONDERFUL?!

I haven’t updated Tumblr in forever but OMG LOOK AT THIS!!! My book is going to be so rad!
Introducing magical girls gettin’ down to business! We have Galactic Purple powering up her signature “Cupcake Bomb.” Not only does it explode, but it has acidic frosting. Next, we have Prism Pink using her seamstress abilities with “Sewn Together Symmetry.” She uses her threads to tie down her opponents, and if they try to move they learn the hard way that the thread is razor sharp.
This art will soon be available as prints of the girls and will also be included in the first book of the magnifiqueNOIR series: I Am Magical.
