You’re going in my acknowledgements because you keep on showing up! The “I’m seated” comments, DMs, encouragement, and the random “HOW IS THE BOOK GOING?” messages. 

When the books come out and you see your name in the acknowledgements, just know I meant it!

This list is actually SO LONG, but I can only tag so many here. Please know that when my books come out, you’ll be the first to know, and I’ll be just as supportive of you and all your creative endeavors.

Tag the people you already know are getting their flowers 💐

One of the best parts of this whole writing journey hasn’t been algorithms, follower counts, or aesthetics.

It’s been the people.

Some of these women have celebrated every tiny milestone with me. Some have brainstormed stories, left comments that changed my entire day, co-hosted events with me, narrated my characters, or simply reminded me that creating doesn’t have to be lonely.

Each one brings something completely different to this little corner of the internet, and I’m endlessly grateful our paths crossed.

If you’re looking for incredible writers, artists, storytellers, and genuinely wonderful humans, I’d love for you to meet a few of my favorite bookish girlies. ☕💛

Go say hello. Tell them G.M. sent you. 🤍

And to all of you featured here…
thank you for making this corner of the internet feel like home! 🥹💚✨

I was hesitant to make this because I never want anyone to feel left out, but I also want to shout out some accounts that deserve some love. I hope to make more of these in the future, I just ran out of tagging room (as seen by me having to tag @jesshartwrites, @duskandrubies, @kay.cook.wrote.a.book, and @nicole_janeway down here— I’m so sorry I overshot! 😅).

I’m thankful for everyone that makes this space brighter and better, for everyone who encourages me to keep going. I hope these friends mentioned here serve as a good starting point for you to make some new connections. 🥰

Who knew there were so many fantasy genres out there 😉

Whether you’re into romance, gothic, dark, or something in between—there’s a story (and an author) waiting for you.

We’re all creating magic in our own lanes and cheering each other on while we do it!

Go find your next favorite author in this lineup!

@beauteeinwriting Dark Fantasy
Currently working on Draft 2 of Project HECATOMB, an adult dark fantasy novel where obsession festers, corruption spreads, and magic unravels the mind, blistering into psychological horror.

@writeordietrying Urban Fantasy
Currently drafting Wyvern’s Sonata, an urban dark fantasy about a former magically enhanced enforcer learning to rebuild his life when he reunites with the gentle beekeeper he once loved—all within a haunted city ruled by criminal syndicates and injectable magic.

@tiffmuseshere Romance Fantasy
Currently querying To Hatch a Storm, a sweeping romantasy where a tender-hearted Black princess must face her fear of becoming a leader to save her family’s dying bloodline. T casually pitches it as House of the Dragons twisted with elemental magic x Bridgerton’s spice and yearning ✨

@freejacklyn Gothic Romantasy
Currently querying Aetherborn, a gothic political romantasy about a woman whose bloodline and power becomes the weapon every king wants to possess colliding with the man ordered to contain her magic. And drafting Project Seafoam, a romantic villian origin story 👀.

@vjpinney Romantasy
Currently writing an epic fantasy and romantasy involving a dark elf noble who was not born into freedom, but born into rules and expectations. She's set to obey all without question, for stepping out of line means death. But when disobeying the rules causes her whole world to be flipped upside down, she finds herself taking on a task much bigger than she asked for, and an adventure she never imagined.

@chaptersoncaffeine Dark Fantasy
Currently revising Your Eyes Tell Stories, a psychological dark fantasy novella about memory, monstrosity, and what happens when the villain forgets but the survivor doesn’t.

Sunday shoutout - author style 

Today i would like to introduce you to some of my friends who write. Some have published their books already. 
And some are still writing ✍🏻 or plotting.

Either way!  These friends, as indie authors could use your support🩷
Plus it is national indie bookstore day/weekend. So it only seemed right to shout out these badass women around me, who write fantastic stories.

If your FYP isn’t helping you find supportive book girlies… here are some of mine! 📚 Drop your fave bookstas in the comments ✨

@purry.pages cats, bookish vibes and goodies! I love her page because she will connect with you in the comments and chat, AND she does the cutest book inspired nails. I loved her One Dark Window set recently. ✨

@waywiithwords a stunning curated vibe of bookish trends, updates, and questions for you story loving soul. 📚

@kayleneskindle if I’m sassy about a book, I’m opening a chat to her without even realizing. She is going to keep it real with her ratings, she doesn’t fall for the hype! 💪🏾💪🏾

@pagestocover the flat lay queen 👑 AND - she is currently putting together a new office library space that is definitely going to be worth checking out. 👀

@bookedblonde life and recs but make them connect ✨ book recs from a fellow teacher. She’s been on booksta for a while so her expertise and wide variety of reads is a must see! My most recent 5✨ read is a rec from her (The Girl with the Louding Voice)

@her_booksymphony enemies to lovers fans, LOOK NO FURTHER. She isn’t going to give you the basic, slight enemies to lovers recs. She will ensure they are TRUE enemies to lovers. I promise! 😈

@tiffmuseshere an author and reader hybrid, she’s working on her writing and her updates are a peak into the writing world 👀 Meanwhile her journaling process is just one of my faves to catch up on.

To end this season and this beautiful month of history and community, I wanted to intentionally spotlight Black women authors whose work I’ve genuinely loved reading and/or engaging with across genres and publishing paths.

All are storytellers who deserve more visibility, more support, and more celebration!

This will be a seasonal practice for me. A way to keep amplifying the voices shaping my shelves and my creativity.

There’s no scarcity in community. There’s room for all of us 🖤

If there’s a Black woman author you love, drop their name below or even create your own list and share it, so we can keep building this list!

Follow. Review. Recommend. Repeat!

Love,
J.Q. 🖤

Fantasy has always been a space we’ve loved and cherished and found ourselves in. 

But visibility matters.

Our voices matter.
Our stories matter.
Our presence in the worlds we adore matters.

We write for our younger selves and for every girl and woman who deserves to see herself reflected in magic, wonder, love, power, and possibility.

Because Black history is not confined to a single month.

It is lived.
It is carried.
It is written into everything we create.

And there is something deeply powerful about finding one another in this space—about building, imagining, and dreaming together.

We are stronger in community.
Stronger in creation.
Stronger together 🖤✨

Honored to celebrate these incredible writers: 

@tiffmuseshere — weaving elemental magic, dragons, and heroines stepping into their strength

@chaptersoncaffeine — lyrical darkness, liminal beauty, and stories that linger like echoes

@freejacklyn — emotionally rich fantasy shaped by power, love, and survival

@nadia.rumbolt — bold, incisive fantasy layered with sharp social commentary
📚 Blood Cure is now available wherever books are sold! 

@evemiller_author — character-driven fantasy filled with heart, tension, and unforgettable dynamics
📚 The Astrian Trials is available now on Barnes and Noble! 

And me, building worlds of messy hearts, dangerous magic, and aching love @writeordietrying
