The Return of Big Big Love
Good news! I’m writing a new, improved, wholly rewritten and updated version of my first book, Big Big Love, the first and still the only book about sex for people who are fat and for the people who love and desire them.
(Don’t start with me about how fat people don’t have sex. Just because you personally don’t like to imagine a particular type of someone having sex doesn’t mean they don’t. To wit, your grandma. Enough said.)
The original came out in 2000, and has been out of print for a while. I’m writing the new one for Ten Speed Press, and it’ll be out sometime in 2011.
As I did with the original, I’ve written an extensive survey for this one, in order to collect as much information as I can from the folks who know best about fat and sexuality — namely, the people who deal with it every day.
If you are part of the target demographic for this book, that is, if you identify yourself as being fat, thick, hefty, plump, zaftig, stocky, roly-poly, rotund, Junoesque, amply-proportioned, or whatever… or if you are romantically/sexually interested in folks who are…. get yourself on over to http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BBL2010survey and tell me all about it. Your anonymity is assured, as are my profoundest thanks.
And do feel free to pass it on!
Sorry I’ve been so lacking in blog content. I’ve needed a little time to grow back after turning in Straight to the publishers and while getting everything up to speed with the Big Big Love project. There’ll be some garden pics and other goodies soon, I promise.
