Welcome to Torsion.οΏΌ

We’re seeking poetry, speculative fiction (or poetry) novel-length manuscripts and novellas by BIPOC writers.

Manuscripts must have zero spice and erotica plotlines and elements. Plutonic, familial, friendship, and queerplutonic plotlines are desired but not required!

In this #darkacademia meets #scifithriller, nine STEM students must save the world from corrupt Higher Education.

Strong FMCs
Burnout college students
Found family
Morally grey characters
Aliens
A large, diverse cast

Then Torsion is the book for you πŸ‘€

A photo of a blue book with a tiger in a boat on the cover titled β€œlife of pie” by the author Yann Martel, the backdrop is a grouping of leaves, with photo editing done to add color and vibrancy to the image.

A photo of a page from the book Life Of Pi with leaves over some of the words, Some sentences are highlighted in pink, there are sparkles on the screen, so the words are blurry.
