Signal Boosting Black Women & NB work!

So this post is to highlight the work of black women & non-binary folks since some people out there want to act as if we’re not doing anything out here.

Allie Bustion is a fledgling tabletop game designer and illustrator working to create inclusive games and supplementary materials (like character portraits). Current projects are a Prohibition era urban fantasy game, translating the Wicked + the Divine to tabletop, and a Twitch-integrated game inspired by Westworld. You can support and watch development at patreon.com/madpierrot, watch streams 3 times a week at twitch.tv/yumi_mads, or just look at some art at madpierrot.tumblr.com and alliebustion.com.

Mikki Kendall AKA Karnythia is on Patreon: Hi, I’m Mikki Kendall. I write. A lot. Most of what you’ll see me write is non fiction. My byline has appeared on a lot of sites. From Washington Post to Salon to the Guardian to Time to Ebony…my non fiction work gets around. It shows up in comics, books, on Twitter, and even on TV and radio. What you might not know is that I also write fiction. My work has appeared in Fireside, Revelator, and I’ve even posted a couple of stories on Medium. I love writing fiction, but I have always struggled with the idea that it wasn’t really work.

Yvvy – Timecube: I am a Black femme making games about all kinds of things. You can find my work at Timecube on itch.io. I’ve been on VICEnews for my game Easy Level Life, which showed up in pastemagazine, themarysue, and killscreen, and I’ve also made a small Prince game to honor his passing.

@mmmusings: I have been writing Poldark fanfiction (all hosted on Ao3, which is down right now) for the past year and am now working on an original story called The Townhouse. I’ve a Patreon site — https://www.patreon.com/mmmusewrites — with details about the work.
