hey let's say that completely hypothetically I had this CRAZY IDEA of trying to make an anthology of essays called 'Twig' written by women about being underweight not due to eating disorders but metabolism, genetics, stress, or other factors
would you be up for that
(I ask because two girls in my writing class this week wrote essays about being thin - one about how she dropped 20 lbs after breaking up with a boyfriend and how this didn't feel awesome, it felt terrible and she worried that people only liked her because she was thin, and the other about trying to gain weight and how there's no advice for that, just how to lose it)
It's an interesting concept for sure. Wanting to gain weight when what's in the news is so badly how the female gender wants to be skinny. However I think that doing an anthology of essays about the other side of the coin is a really good idea
