As part of Quarantined Pages, I had the opportunity to interview Briana Lawrence, author of the new adult magical girl fantasy MagnifiqueNOIR. We discuss the importance of showing Black queer womens joy, the process of incorporating her love of anime and pop culture fandom into these books,and future developments for the series.
MagnifiqueNOIR is available through Kindle Unlimited and her etsy: snowtigra.etsy.com. She also has MagnifiqueNOIR prints, buttons, and stickers. You can find her on twitter @Brichibitweets
