Episode #13: Cocky, Curvy, and Completely Unapologetic: Romance with a Side of Realness ft. Amy Award

In this episode of The Curvy Literary Podcast, Keshia sits down with the self-proclaimed “curvy queen of romcom chaos,” Amy Award—author of The Cocky Kingmans series. Amy shares how her journey from teaching in Vietnam to falling headfirst into romance novels led her to write loud, body-positive stories with curvy heroines who own their worth. They dive into the Kingman family saga, Amy’s love of football and found families, and why she believes “too much” is the highest compliment. From the infamous rooster incident to radical softness and laugh-out-loud spice, this conversation is a love letter to readers who’ve never seen themselves on the page—until now. Amy also teases upcoming releases, talks reader reactions, and reminds aspiring authors that the world needs their loud, messy, unapologetic stories.Follow Amy on InstagramFollow Amy on TikTokJoin Amy's Facebook GroupCheck Out Her Website*Sign up for her newsletter on her website and the get Kingman series prequel, Bridger and April's story free.Check Out:Maya Rodale's Book, Dangerous Books for Girls: the Bad Reputation of Romance Novels Explained
