hi there.

I really liked your guide but there's a few stuffs i will like to add to it.

For a advice that i could say is when you planned to created a big storyline it would not always end like you planned to be from the begining.

Basicly what i tried to say is when you created a story you will not goin to have the entired begining to the end of it the moment that you created it, a story is a concept that you created on your head that evolves with the time and put subjects and characters and challenges to it but the moment you created your story you could change somenthing that you decide to put since the begining like for example the way of how the character was teleport to the another world, the name of the protagonist, his genre etc. It also will not only count to the protagonist, it could also be the secundary character, the love interest of the protagonist and even the main antagonist of your story like for example in the first incredibles movie syndrome was not goin to be the main villain of the movie but a second one who will only appear in the begining of the movie but the producer team liked syndrome and make him the main villain.

The change could not only work in characters but in scenarios on your stories like how it would begin, the ending of it and even the would story but still conserving the main concept of it, even if you been working in this story on your head for years there will be some details that you din't created yet like for example in antopia you say in the reviews that you have not thinking abouth a backstory for Penelope father, i will not say is a problem because usually when you start writing your story there's stuffs that the authors don't have a story for it yet, that problem it could be fix the moment whe start writing the story because writing is very diferent that planning on your head and make you have more ideas and understanding of how your story will go, there's moments when you write that a idea pops in your head for the scene that are you writing or use later on, i will also suggest still grab in hand the scrapted ideas because later you can use it for a character or a moment later on the story or take inspiration of it.

Sometimes when we are publicate or stories we can created new or few characters that interact with the protagonist that you have not any plan the moment when you decide your story, it also happends to the destiny of the characters like if you planned that one characters will have a happy ending but you change it to one less happy and also those new characters could make you change how the protagonist could make it to one point during the story like if originally the character have to go to the sea and have to steal a boat but the new character have a boat and will help him and creating a new curse of events.

Another case could be when you din't know how to get to a point to another, basicly not knowing how to advance or how to make to that point in the storie, i will recomend to get suggestions or talk with another author to help you in that issue.

Somentimes those suggestion could make you have ideas or created new characters or plots for use later on in the story that you din't think abouth and could make the story more interesting. Those ideas could be new characters that will be part of the protagonist adventure, a villain that could work better that the one you have planned or a situation that put the protagonist in troubles. (i don't know if Max aphid size was a idea that you have or a suggestion in the reviews so i could use that as a example).

Another suggestion is when you want to created a story with a specific focus or a part of the story or chapter just focus on themes like vore, feet, crush etc i will recomend look or read for authors that are good in those themes, for example if you want to focus on a story or chapter with a gentle theme which is not a very common theme in here i will recomend you to read the stories of Terry larka a author who has stories that are focus on that theme and the interactions betwen small and bigs.

Anyways thats most of what i have to say so anyway i hope that you are good and....

Bye. :)

Hi there

I will agree with you that this guide is out dated. At the time I wrote this Antopia was only 4 chapters long and I was never intending it to swell it into a full feature length epic novel.

A lot can change over time and yes, I have wanted to write this for years. The more ideas you have the more you have to go back check whether the previous story lore is in sync. For example, when I wrote Max’s teacher Darla Fitzgerald, I gave her black hair at the start of the story but later on when I wrote the backstories which popped into my head later with her as a 7-year-old girl I gave her blond hair.

Every time an idea pops in my head I always jot it in my notes so I don’t forget.

The backstory about Penelope’s father was something that popped into me head later on and I am still trying to decide exactly where to incorporate it.

Max being aphid sized was actually a suggestion I decided to incorporate in.   

I think I need to a section to this guide specifically about giantess interactions: vore, feet, crush, insertion etc since some giantess interactions are more difficult to write than others. In fact, vore and graphic digestion is the most time-consuming interaction to write about since it requires the most description and word count.

Thanks for the tips.

Great resource you’ve created here, can I recommend a book called Save the Cat? It helps you outline your story before writing and really makes a difference!
