Diet Riot: A Fatterpunk Anthology features twelve fat-positive horror tales of people who come into their own, celebrate their curves, and save the day. There are babysitters and bakers, thieves and roller derby stars. Young women unsure about their bodies meet demons and water spirits who offer assistance–in their own way, of course. Danger lurks in hospitals, in the mysterious occult shop in the local mall, and in a house filled with cats. Campers, trash collectors, and house flippers alike uncover nasty secrets underground. A myriad of horrors await you–none of which comes at the expense of fat bodies. It’s time to reclaim the "f" word.
When last did you look to the night sky and wonder what might loom in the far reaches of the universe? These are the tales of sentient life in the multiverse. Of the strange and diverse sophonts, hiveminds, anarcho-syndicalist collectives, and anyone--or anything--you could encounter in the far reaches of space. Some linger lovingly on the jagged edge of horror. Some offer immortality while others offer knowledge, hope, or comfort beyond imagining. These tales dare to explore the endless diversity of intelligent life in the multiverse. Are you brave enough to come along for the ride? These tales answer such questions as: Is there life out there? What do they rally for--or against? What do they see when they look at our blue marble in the night sky? And most importantly of all, do they party? These short stories push the reader beyond our pale definition of sentient life.
