COSGRRRRL The Elemental Series Issue #1

Angebote / Angebote:

Part literary magazine, part pop culture manifesto, and illustrated just enough to engage the third grade reader in you, COSGRRRL is on a mission. To fight evil. To geek out. To save the world.How? Well, it's complicated, but suffice to say we here at COSGRRRL have worked it all out, and it has to do with being strong in our intellectual diversity, and talking about the things we love, and the fact that science fiction and fantasy are far superior (as far as topics go) to politics and news and religion on account of the fact that sci-fi and fantasy force us to explore our humanity and new frontiers of being. It's also a little bit about manifestation, and the idea that if we get a bunch of people who are different together talking about what they love, we're bound to solve more problems.If that's not enough reason: we use cool "A" words like "Afrocentrism" and "Anarchy", and we shit-talk the Disney Channel, and write fanfiction according to our own particular...idiom. Yes, unfortunately, there IS a little bit of poetry in these issues too, but don't hold that against the entire franchise. There are also velociraptors and copious uses of the "N" word in the fiction section, so the pace always picks back up again. Issue #1: Origins, features a mix of emerging writers (some of whom have been rejected from most outlets for being too unconventional or extreme), new writers, and widely published heavyweight bards: Rand Fishkin Gary E. Moore, Richard Brownell, Evan Fleischer, Reverend Nigga Daddy, Bill Henning, Sarah Myles, Southpaw Poet, and more.This humunculous of a publication is the creation of writer / educator (and scruffy-looking nerf herder) Marjorie Steele, who has been publishing COSGRRRL as a digital publication on Medium.com since October 2017. A Michigander, Marjorie is also an adjunct faculty at Kendall College of Art and Design of FSU, sits on The Court of Nerds, and plays the elven druid Yvanna on the CoN's Dungeons and Dragons podcast, Reverse Centaur.
