Description

In the last 20 years, the female heroine in all romances were: tiny waisted blondes, thin as a reed redheads, and hungry looking, round eyed waifs, and all these characters are still found in today’s romance books? Our society spends a tremendous amount of time and money on making young girls and women, who aren't the perfect size 8, to feel as though they have no value in life, beyond looking pretty, and being thin. Where do these women get these ideas? TV, yes. Fashion, Of course. Romance novels, 100% true! What can you do about it?

Join our collective of brainy, successful BBW writers! Our writers and readers are hardworking, inventive, positive, confident folks who are working to make a difference in the life of 1 reader. Why? To send a message that women are valued beyond their looks. That women can contribute to society no matter their size, by portraying them in every writing genre: paranormal, sci-fi, historical, modern, time travel, new age, Christian, gender-bender, etc, to create and support the writers and the readers who are our little girls now and our future women of tomorrow. If you’re frustrated about what you’re reading and how women are portrayed, join our group today, share your ideas, let us help you write your next story, poem, or article.

We listen, we help each other, and we share ideas. If one book can be written that can change our narrow minded society's view on full figured women into a positive and more confident role, then these groups are worth your time.

We are a working group of writers. We invite you to join us, but please be respectful.

Thankyou, Heather Donovan, Group Owner
