A very intriguing start, and as always a pleasure to see your name pop up on the most recent page.  I myself am in a similar boat with not showing up at frequently, although I've still got my fingers crossed continually for the 3rd Fairytale Romance story to show up eventually...  Nice work!



Author's Response:

Believe me, I'm still trying to come up with a good story for the next Fairytale Romance. It's not easy, because I don't want to do something that's similar to the first and predictable (any ideas would be welcome!) Thanks for the review!

Summary:

A woman plans a birthday party for her stepbrother. Once the party favors arrive and are prepared, all that remains is for the birthday boy to show up and enjoy his gifts. But that's not all she has planned for him.

A very intriguing start you have here.  You do a nice job of fleshing out the characters in a short space to the point that I think the no-doubt unfortunate/sexy interactions to take place later will have greater impact.  Nice work!

I hope the sexy interactions don't detract too much from the story. I have stories to tell and hope you enjoy me sharing them with you!

While this is a solid premise and you convey your ideas pretty effectively, it moves along so quickly that I think it goes beyond just dispensing with backstory and instead becomes more like summary.  I agree with the first reviewer; don't be afraid to beef this up a little more.  You have a lot of room to grow here without it becoming overly complicated, as you say you want to avoid.

Summary:



An 18-year-old finds himself reduced in size by the Rebalancing of Sexes when his mother gives him to a 40-year-old neighbor. Even more challenging, he has to prove himself to her toys, which see him as just another member of the team. Read "Rebalancing the Sexes" and other stories in the series to get an idea what's going on when the protagonist shrinks. NOTE: Some editing to earlier chapters to add detail and clear up Mike's ambiguity about his situation.

I like this.  The speaker writing to Jason does a nice job re-establishing your fictional universe in the context of rights and how the world sees men.  The greeting card was a nice touch, and I enjoyed the semi-humorous but still pathetic exchange between your protagonist and the sex toys.  Well done.

Very nice work.  You've got some solid description throughout that engages the senses well.  The sorority pledge dare was a nice touch to make the event seem a bit more plausible than just a couple of psychos showing up on the doorstep.  You did a good job in general of making the story feel self-contained, especially in the more light-hearted ending, compared to how stories of this type often conclude much more gorily.  If I had to critique something, I'd say the dialogue here and there from the girls was a little more stiff than it needed to be, such as how they don't use contractions as often as most college girls do, but that's a very minor nitpick.  Again, a great little tale here, 5 stars easily.



Author's Response:

I really appreciate the in-depth review, Jacksmith. I have to say on the description front I was actually inspired directly by some of your stories; I think you're one of the best at describing smelly feet (among other things) in creative and different ways. And actually, I decided to make the ending the way I did because I had been actively trying to avoid some of the tropes you are currently harping on in "The Chronicles of Jimmy Reynolds." In many of the stories put out today, the girl/antagonist is a totally unrealistic psychotic bitch (although obviously many of us find this sexy). In real life, I feel like you'd have to have some kind of spectacular motivation in order to actually kill/enslave someone; so while it's all fantastical smut in the end, I guess slightly more realistic characters in said smut might come off better.

Anyway, thanks for the tip on the dialogue. It's definitely an area that I've been looking to improve. Hopefully I'll be able to make some adjustments for the next story.

Thanks again for the review.

You're building some good steam on this story.  The set-up seemed a bit rushed to me, what with Georgia seeming to get over her new position in life pretty quickly, but these last couple chapters have been pretty great.  You don't see many stories that handle the gentle giantess angle like this, and the relationship of the characters comes off as much more playful than risky, which is a nice tone to have.  The newest chapter's truth or dare game in particular was very creative in its uses of their different sizes, and contained some pretty enticing situations without it seeming off on the part of either character, due to their intoxication.  If I could make one critique, I'd say don't be afraid to show us a bit more of Georgia's emotional side; as I said, she seems to have gotten over her permanently shrunken situation pretty quickly, so it might be interesting to see how she's really handling all this.  Well done, keep it up.



Author's Response:

Thanks for the advice. Usually when I start writing I have a specific scene in mind and then I have to backtrack on myself to build up to that part.  So I probably do rush through a bit just because I want to be writing a different part. I'll try and work on that though, but I'm glad you liked it.

Summary: This one's a bit unusual, but myself and Tinyone234 gathered requests from a handful of different sites and agreed to write 11 of them each and post them one per day.

So every chapter is a short story written by one of us! It's not a typical story, so feel free to check back every day cause every chapter is a completely different story!

I was very surprised with how much you were able to flesh out what is ostensibly the stereotypical macrophile forum post as a story.  I liked how the "you" of the story was writing the events before actually doing anything; it simultaneously gave it a unique pacing and made it way meta, which I always enjoy seeing in these kinds of stories if someone has a good sense of humor about it, and you certainly do.  The references to "gentle" stories were a pretty goofy touch as well, considering you or "you" wouldn't touch one with a ten foot pole.  Kudos and cupcakes and spilled entrails to you, etc.

I like this a lot.  The idea of a giantess being willingly revered by a town is pretty enticing, and the crush sequence was fun.  I was hoping she was actually going to switch bodies with the giant girl so that she could crush her former tiny body with her new mind inside it, or even eat her.  Still, great stuff!

This is a nice start.  You do a good job of keeping the unaware angle light and playful.  There are some spelling/grammar mistakes around that might be worth cleaning up, and sometimes the verb tenses don't match up, but overall this is a decent way to jump into your tale.  Keep it up.

Date: January 04 2014 Title: Chapter 1: Welcome To Maria

This is a very cool premise here.  I like that it utilizes two points of view of the inmates and Maria to give the reader a more expansive image of what's going on at the time.  Though some may be bothered by the violence/discrimination, as you said, it'll certainly add to the realism of the situation and characters to have those elements present, so I say go wild with those kinds of things.  It'll be interesting to see where you take this, as it's a very solid start you have here.



Author's Response:

I've been experimenting with multiple viewpoints for a while and I think I found a system that works, so hopefully I'll be adding the POV's of other characters as the story proceeds. Also I think a lot of people will definetely be bothered by the racism/violence. After all this is a story about a prison, and what kind of prison doesn't have race based gangs, and discrimination.

Its a fine line with these stories from what I've been told, so I hope I don't end up crossing it.

Though this is only a premise, I like a lot of the inherent conflict of the world you've established with this brief conversation regarding the treatment of the races and what it means to be a person.  It'll be interesting to see how you explore those themes further when your tinies start interacting with an actual giantess.

I like how everything seems to be converging toward this party now, with the various prior threads of the story all at least being touched on tangentially with this chapter. Normally I turn my nose up a little at Jenna but I kinda love that little gesture where she holds her finger over Naomi's face. Also interesting to hear mention of her emotional difficulties, which I was not expecting to see come up; still crossing my fingers that that thread gets tugged a little more down the line. I was glad too that we got to see Claire reacting to Corey's absence, as I'd been curious if she'd just let such a thing drop. Judging by how suspicious she appeared that Melody would goof something up, I assume the matter isn't closed for her. I am very very curious to see if that's a conflict you choose to play with at some point. Finally it was nice to see Naomi coming back into contact with Steph after all the turmoil. A sweet little cliffhanger end there.

Reviewer: Jacksmith Signed
Date: July 03 2015 Title: Chapter 32: Motions

Motions, indeed.

Glad that Steph got a last development in her storyline here, since she had the lengthiest emotional journey of the three who attacked Corey, at least in the scope of this story. I half-expected she and Claire were on their way to visit a grave for her brother, but that would've been a tad grim, I suppose. What you went with was quite nice.

I liked that we finally got to see all the Lindons together. That was a nice image to provide ever so briefly before they all part ways again for wherever they're headed now. The idea of having three Omegas all circled up together with Corey and Howard like little specks of dust hanging out on the girls' fingers was great, difficult as it is to imagine given the scale. I'm eager to see them in a new setting beyond the bounds of the Lindon house.

I appreciated how the final moment with Abby encapsulated the varying degrees of the story's subtitle, not just in the obvious ways for Claire's charges, but for everyone that's been impacted in some way by the events here and the challenges they'll face in the future. It was a nice mix of hopeful but still appropriately cautious of what'll almost certainly eventually lead to some new conflict. And hearing the Fire spelled out again in much more explicitly dire terms, succinct as it was, leaves a great promise for further difficulties for everyone.

Anyway, it was a fun ride. Glad to see this installment brought to a fitting close.

I'm really liking your set-up here.  I'm always curious by the concept of the "shy giantess" archetype, as it's not a plot decision made by many authors, and what can be done with it.  Your main character is already very likeable and her interaction with her peers both small and large nicely reflects how a gentle giantess might have to react in so bizarre a situation.  Good work, keep it up.



Author's Response:

The "shy giantess" was actually one of the very last things I decided to have in my story. I originally intended a normal high schooler but after reading one author's story (I'm not gonna name them yet. At the end of the story I'll give them a huge shout out) it struck me how perfect a shy girl would be in a situation like this. So I put her in, and essentially changed the story to revolve around how she adjusts to this New World. 

Thanks for a positive comment!

This is a very solid start.  You've got a great hook for your beginning by throwing your readers right into the midst of your plot and initially skipping over the introductory material setting up the size-changing antics.  It gives the story an atmosphere much like a concentration camp and, especially given the number of tiny people in captivity, immediately provides the story with some heavy stakes.  Well done here, and keep up the good work.

This was a fresh twist on the genre.  The events had a nice logical flow that made me want to see what came next, and the grammar/construction was all neat and tidy.  If anything, I'd have been interested to see the story go on a little longer with Sarah experimenting with the doll before she did what she did, but the dark tone of that ending worked well given how short the story is.  Overall, a very solid piece here; well done.
