“For the Love of Geekdom”
Bree (Cosmic Green) has always been a geek, and she’s very happy to have another geek on the team: Lonnie (Radical Rainbow). However, the two have very different paths into the world of geekdom.
Damn those cute geek girls <3 <3 <3
Check out the Kickstarter for magnifiqueNOIR: a book series about black, queer, magical girls :)
To celebrate 100 backers (WHOO!) I wanted to share a picture with all of you. One of the freebees you get from pledging is a coloring page of all the girls cosplaying. I colored it in to show one of the ways you can color it. You can also print it out and color it that way, too, which I’ll share a pic of later.
This coloring page was actually drawn by ME! I don’t do too much drawing, to be honest. I’m usually writing or crafting, so this is the first project I’ve had where I’ve done some illustrations (this coloring page and the mini comics that’ll be in the book).
Thank you so much, everyone, for your continued support. We have two weeks left so let’s make this happen! Share! Pledge! Drink hot chocolate because it’s tasty!
Keep at it, magical ones <3

Check out this feature from Black Girl Nerds! <3 <3 <3
Kickstarter campaign is HERE!
The girls are celebrating a great first week with the Kickstarter (via some adorable art by NamiOki)!
1. There are 82 backers after the first week!
2. We’re already at 6K! This is about 37% of the goal. For the first week, that’s PHENOMENAL!
3. The largest tier “They’re All My Waifus” is SOLD OUT!
4. Remember, you can keep up with what’s going on through the event MagnifiqueNOIR Kickstarter (at least until the 17th since Facebook only lets you have an event for 2 weeks)
I’m also happy to report that I spent a lot of time this weekend talking about the project at Gaylaxicon AND got to talk about it on a podcast (which I’ll link when it’s posted). The support has been amazing and all of you are wonderful!
Remember, if there’s a tier you want, go for it (especially the limited ones) as Kickstarter won’t charge you until the end of the campaign.
I’m gonna relax and actually celebrate my anniversary tomorrow, lol, so until then: GOODNIGHT, MAGICAL ONES <3 <3 <3

No one said being magical was gonna be easy…
And no one better say that these girls aren’t up for the task.

Good morning, magical ones! Here’s where we are after the first day. I know I’ve said thank you about a million times, but let’s go for a million and one! THANK YOU SO MUCH, everyone! Keep sharing! Keep spreading the word! Keep pledging and encouraging others to do so! Let’s have a great second day :)

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.
AND WE’RE LIVE!!! The Kickstarter for the first book in my magical girl book series is ready to go! The series focuses on a group of black, queer, magical girls who save the world with sparkles, sass, and fabulous hair. The first book, “I Am Magical,” is the start of the adventure, and will be a full-length novel with full colored picture inserts and mini one-shot comics. There are all sorts of fun early bird extras, exclusives, freebees, add-ons, tiers, stretch goals… THE WORKS!
The Kickstarter is HERE! Thank you to everyone who pledges and/or shares the magic :)
UPDATE! We just crossed $2,500! THANK YOU SO MUCH, EVERYONE!!! Keep sharing, keep promoting, keep using #magnifiqueNOIR, keep doing everything! Let’s bring these girls to life <3 <3 <3
YOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Did someone say black, queer, magical girls? Did someone say Kickstarter exclusive prints of black, queer, magical girls?

Welcome, everyone, to the world of magnifiqueNOIR, a young adult book series that delves into the lives of a group of extraordinary magical girls who defend the lives of the people around them. Along the way, they face new challenges that may undo everything that they’ve become, but even so, they always work to be the best women they can be.
