Happy #PrideMonth everyone! I’m Briana (or just Bri), a bisexual author with several books featuring all kinds of queer characters. Whether it’s my magical girl series, my middle grade fantasy series, or even my manga guide, if I’m writing it, it’s gonna be gay.

My goal is to finish the next chapter in my book. Finishing it + the epilogue is a little bit ambitious, but hoping to at least finish the next chapter 🥰

ALERT! There is one more chapter + the epilogue of magnifiqueNOIR Book 3 left to write. WE’RE ALMOST THERE BESTIES!!!

Nakamura, a gay kid, reminding Hirose that he doesn’t have to force himself to do things he doesn’t want after Hirose tells him that sometimes he likes to be alone/doesn’t always like listening to his friend talk about girls? Oh Nakamura, you have no idea how good you are 🥹

I actually am pretty hard on myself about magnifiqueNOIR sometimes. I came up with the idea 10 years ago and I want to take it so far, so sometimes I’m like, “You only have two books, what have you been doing this whole time?” (1/2)

The gag with the whole “wholesome BL” mindset is that SasaMiya proved like a year or so ago that no matter how wholesome your queer content is, folks will still demonize it for being queer. Did we forget that they wanted to ban it? (1/2)

I’m still trying to process having a line full of librarians, educators, parents and readers eager to check out my books. What an incredible experience, thank you so much to PLA and Andrews McMeel for the opportunity 🥹🥹🥹 (Also I’m late in posting this here I’m the worst 😭)

In honor of Trans Visibility Day here’s your annual reminder of the existence of Prism Pink, my transgender seamstress turned magical girl in my book series magnifiqueNOIR (art by @princessjem4.bsky.social both the pic and the book covers) 🥰

Two books next to each other. One is pink and one is a dark blue. The book title is magnifiqueNOIR.

Hi hi! I'm bad at posting here, but! Not only will I be at PLA 2026 here in Minneapolis doing a signing for my middle-grade Fantasy Pin World series, but in June, I’ll be at ALA 2026 in Chicago doing a panel about manga! What do you mean I’m doing stuff with two library conferences about my work 🥹

So if the first book in my Black, queer, magical girl series is about the next generation of magical girls. And the second is them stepping back and wondering why the monsters are returning. It only makes sense that Book 3 introduces us to the original team, illustrated here by Tiana Conyers 👀👀👀

Art vs artist but it’s books vs author. Happy New Year, aiming to have even more this year 🥰

Not gonna lie I’m really happy about doing a year recap because I’ve been hard on myself for not doing some of the things I set out to do, but this reminded me to not discount what I DID do this year. Even if you don’t achieve some things, it doesn’t mean you didn’t achieve anything.

No one is surprised that I get to be the one to round up our favorite anime of the year because I always gotta slap a Gachiakuta image on whatever I can 😅 www.crunchyroll.com/news/feature...

I am literally writing fanfiction again and it feels so good and slowly I can feel the muses for my original stories being inspired.

Since holiday break has been activated I really should use the time to reintroduce my Black, queer, magical girl book series to the world, especially since I’m finishing up the third book. Saying it out loud so I actually do it 😅

Hello Chicago friends! It’s looking like we may be in town next year during Pride (so end of June). Any tips for a Black, queer author, on bookstores to potentially hit up for book stuff (signings, readings, ect.) or Pride events for writers?

Very inspiring to see an indie game get so many awards. It’s been hard to feel creative lately for a lot of different reasons, so it’s really nice to see a small team of creatives get so much recognition.

Honestly a Gachiakuta fighting game where Zanka’s moves are like my girl Seung Mina’s would fix everything in my life. The way I used her religiously in Soul Calibur 🥹🥹🥹

I haven’t written fanfic in over a year but after meeting Jabber and Zanka the muses are like “return to your roots.” Here’s another #janka fic, the comments have been lovely, thank you for the reminder that you can return to writing fic at anytime 😌 archiveofourown.org/works/74905536

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

I cannot explain how much joy this brings me. I’ve been feeling a bit lost about this series but posts like this re-energize me and remind me that I’m putting something good in the world. Thank you so much for the support 🙏🏾

You know when you get into an anime series and you meet those characters who make up a ship that you fall so hard for that you start writing fanfic after 5 million years? Anyway I’m in Jabber and Zanka (Gachiakuta) hell, Janka consumes my everything: archiveofourown.org/works/73988316
