Gabriel Gubert — Resume
A concise overview of Gabriel's writing, creative and professional work.
A NOVEL IN FIVE PARTS
A five-part saga about love, power and the strange forces that shape human existence.
Book I · Free pilot preview · 36 pagesA queer love story that grows into a mystery about connection, power and the forces behind ordinary life.
What began as the first story I ever wrote—originally conceived as a screenplay more than a decade ago—has grown into an expansive saga about love, power, identity, and the strange forces that shape human existence.
At its heart is a queer love story, but this is far from a conventional romance. Blending fantasy, magical realism, science fiction, irony and speculative history, the series follows hidden forces, secret societies and conflicts whose origins reach far beyond what first appears.
The saga is planned as five novels. Across them, I explore queer life, neurodiversity, family, gender, power, time, resistance, mythology and the many ways people try to understand—or control—the world around them.
“The book began as a question: what happens when love is connected to something much larger than the people who feel it?”

A few notes on the screenplay, the first draft and the strange life a story can develop over time.
Essentia Amore started as a screenplay. I was trying to understand a relationship, a city and a feeling that did not fit inside an ordinary love story. The first version was smaller. The questions were not.
Over the years, the story kept opening new rooms. A character would reveal a different history. A private conflict would point toward a larger system. What began as a single narrative became a way of thinking about connection: between people, cultures, generations and worlds.
That is still the pleasure of writing it. The book changes as I understand more about what it was asking from me in the first place.
A work for the stage.
A poetry collection.
A two-act play about Hermes, a messenger of the gods, a tarot shaman and the possibility of becoming human.
A new speculative work currently taking shape.
A stage project in its first conversations with the page.
07 / ABOUT
I write stories that move between queer love, magical realism, speculative history, poetry and theatre. I like the page when it feels alive: a place to build worlds, test power and leave a few doors unlocked for the reader.
Essentia Amore began as a screenplay more than a decade ago and grew into the work I keep returning to.
