Attention all queer witches of color! POWER & MAGIC is a comics anthology about women of color, for women of color. And they’re accepting submissions until March 15th!

Witches are icons of female power. They represent rebellion, transcendence, healing, feminine monstrosity, so-called “deviance,” and interconnectedness (with the earth, with their bodies, with each other).

Keep your eyes peeled for the POWER & MAGIC Kickstarter coming in the near future!
