making use of my best resource! *winning smile*

[such_heights]

Hi all,

Am looking for resources for a couple of friends of mine, and was wondering if any of you have some links/suggestions off the top of your head!

1. I am looking for novels that feature positive portrayals of women who aren't thin.

2. I am looking for resources to help someone who's currently in a pretty bad pit of depression but having trouble articulating that and reaching out. That sounds all too familiar to me, but I don't recommend my own strategy of going and going until you snap. Anything about first reaching out for professional support or recognising that's what happening is an illness and not a moral failing would be most welcome.

♥!

Oh awesome, thanks so much for the info! And the first resource is for academic purposes, so anything and everything is great.

You're welcome, I'm glad to be of help! Overnight I remembered Deep Secret by Diana Wynne Jones, a madcap real-world fantasy set at an SFF convention has a heroine who's grumpy, not-thin and AWESOME. And also amazing mythology and centaurs, omg.
