About
cosgrrrl
An alliance of misfits. We battle evil by talking about what we love.
Note from the editor

COSGRRRL is nerd magazine where we fight evil by talking about what we love. We believe the nerdier genres are genetically engineered to fight evil, because they turn our conversations towards unity, justice, equality, hope, respect, and they challenge the blind abuse of technology. Sci-fi and fantasy teach us to ask "what if?" - and they show us that when we are unified in our diversity, we are strong. We publish content in five categories: essays, reviews, humor, cospoetry, and (fan+)fiction. Editorial guidelines revolve around one rule: You love what you love. What we want to know is: Why?
