14 years ago Briana Lawrence (Brichibi Cosplays) and Jessica Walsh (Snow Tigra) were two fanfiction writing ladies who geeked out over Gundam Wing boys and Resident Evil. Now? Those fanfiction days have transformed into writer careers that ranges from published books, freelance jobs, and articles about cosplay and the issues that come up in the community. Brichibi writes geeky scripts for WatchMojo.com that focus on video games and anime and also has a cosplay column for “Twin Cities Geek.” She has had several books published: a supernatural murder mystery called “Treat Me Kindly” and a gay romance murder mystery called “Double Hue.” She also has a handful of short stories that have been published by Dreamspinner Press and has been featured in the book, “60 Black Women in Horror Fiction.” Meanwhile, Snow has had her work in Apex Magazine, and also writes for “Twin Cities Geek.” She’s also been noticed by Dreamspinner Press and has a novella published called “Ironbound Kisses.”
Together, the two ladies are working on a series of urban supernatural books in their “Hunters” series and are also working on a variety of erotic shorts for their “Devious Pies” series. They’ve also written a LGBT comic that is going to be illustrated by Arbitrary Muse Comics. On top of the both of them being featured on a number of sites for their cosplay and the issues they discuss, they’re featured in the book, “The Little Book of Big Babes,” which highlights one of their cosplay designs.
When going to conventions they always bring their best so that they can promote their work. You can get lost in their books, enjoy their crafts, or heck, you can come by for a hug and fun conversations about cosplay, anime, or video games. Always promoting positivity and always supporting one another, Brichibi and Snow are smiling their way through the geek scene.
