If you are a fat author or editor with a book hitting shelves in 2026, hello! I want to feature your book!

Fat Forward Books is a community space that celebrates books by fat authors, about fat experiences, and featuring fat characters across every genre and age group.

*Fat Forward Books does not accept pro-diet or pro-weight loss content. While we recognize that many stories about fatness (both fiction and nonfiction) discuss dieting, weight loss, and anti-fatness, we will refuse coverage of any work that presents these topics in a positive light. Additionally, Fat Forward Books does not accept racist, transphobic, homophobic, ableist, or classist work, and Fat Forward Books is anti-AI. Please do not submit any work (written or illustrated) that used any amount of generative AI at any point in its creation.
