As someone who loves both creative writing and the giantess fantasy, I hugely enjoy contributing to this community. My works vary wildly from the pleasantly gentle to the fetishistically cruel, and I hope to explore everywhere in between as well. The most prevalent subgenres in my stories are feet, mouthplay, and taboos, those being my favorites, but I try to add variation to keep them entertaining.

Excellent as usual. Despite the number of foot fans in the giantess community, few stories put a heavy focus on sock interaction and sock crushing specifically, so it was great to see it represented with such good writing and vivid characterization here. The image of a well-worn sock fogging up glass is such a simple one yet it sets the scene so well. A short but damn sweet little tale; very nice work!

This is a very solid start. The self-referential style of just imagining up a scenario and writing for this site gives the story a raw kind of honesty. Your speaker's tone is clearly defined and gives him a distinct personality. Even before giant characters appeared, you did a good job in setting the scene and more importantly the mentality of being as small as the speaker was, such as when he touched the leg of the huge desk. When the taller characters did appear, I was intrigued by the handling of it as the speaker just observes them frozen while he prepares the fantasy. It had a video game-esque sensibility that felt unique, since the tiny character is not normally so in control of the plot in a giantess story as he is here. The slo-mo moment was pretty cool, as was when he first caught a whiff of Ashley’s shoe. It was brief, but very well done descriptively. I’m a little hard-pressed to give you specific pointers, as you asked for, since this was mostly an introduction chapter and the giantess shenanigans only started up at the end. Overall though this is a fun beginning. Do keep it up.
As insinuated in my last comment, I wanted to drop you another note once you were into the actual giantess action, where I could get a better appraisal of your fetish fiction. All I can really say is that you've got this shit on lock. The thick descriptions work great, and the casual atmosphere of the dream world where the speaker controls the outcome but is still being controlled on another level by Ashley is very fun. The way you managed to skip over the whole song and dance of explaining the shrinking to her with the "plot device" moment was a funny one, and was effective in moving the plot forward to the sexy stuff, which you obviously were eager to do. Given how chapter 2 has already ended with some intense foot worship and a toe job, it'll be interesting to see how you keep the flow of events fresh as you move forward, but I'm sure you've got a good handle on it. You've got some skill at this, there's no doubt about it. A definite 5 star.

You did a nice job with this. Authors often underestimate the raw punch of a small, self-contained narrative such as this. The foot-focused action was fun and the subtlety of the character personalities was well-handled.
Hey, nice to hear that from you. I really want to work on facial descriptions, the girl I have in mind for this is just plain looking, idly scratching the sole of her foot. I can't DESCRIBE that, though, it's hard ._.
A loving father of one inexplicably starts shrinking. Unfortunately for him, his daughter soon realizes that she doesn’t have to take orders from him anymore – and their relationship starts to take an entirely different turn …
Definitely a nice start. You do a solid job of establishing the relationship of the characters early on to give us an idea of why Kyra is probably going to make an entertaining giantess later on, and even making us sympathetic to her because of the speaker's strictness. I remember you mentioning your interest in this genre and have been curious where you planned to take it, so keep on going!
Thanks, man. I suppose it could have used a little more backstory, actually. But let's see what you think about it as the story unfolds more. Thanks for reading!
This was a very effective chapter. The awkwardness of the changing room is played up excellently, and the dialogue sells it. Personally, I'd say you're a leader around here of taking what might be seen as the mundanities of ordinary life and tweaking just enough of it in unseen ways to get it to drip with subtle sexiness. The patience you exhibit in letting your scenes play out in as close to real time as possible is to be admired as well. Once again, very nice work.
Yeah, you're right, I suppose I do focus a lot on otherwise mundane situations. Especially stuff like family life, with its predefined relationships and accepted norms of behavior. It's because these norms are so universal and taken for granted (and therefore mundane), that it becomes (for me, anyway) terribly exciting to see them upturned.
As for your last comment: haha, yeah, the scenes may feel like they're in 'real time' after the fact, but when I'm actually sitting down and writing them it feels sometimes more like they're in super-ultra-ridiculously slow motion. I just have to accept sometimes that I'll be writing a single scene for days at a time, lol.
Well, holy hell. I wasn't expecting to see pay-off like this so soon, given the pacing of your previous story, though it was a very pleasant surprise. Keep it up man.
Yeah, when I picked up this story again after two years I was surprised myself by how quickly I brought that into the story, haha.
Another good chapter. It was interesting to see the dynamics of their relationship altered after the previous night, with Kyra playing nice occasionally but still managing to get into his head, and your speaker coming to terms with the fact that he kind of enjoys their interactions. It did seem a little silly when he tried pulling the "when I was your age" card about her upcoming date, well after the point where she's clearly disregarded his opinions to the point of raping him. Maybe that's just how deep his denial is, though. Regardless, a fine job here. I've got no idea where you find the drive to make your chapters this lengthy.
Yeah, maybe I should have written his reaction to learning Kyra's going on a date a little differently. But I do like the thought of him trying to retain what little he has left of his parental instincts by trying to speak up about it (even if he knows it'll almost certainly be useless). It kind of highlights how feeble and 'lost' he is in the absence of his normal fatherly identity which has been so quickly stripped from him lately. I did notice that it came out seeming kind of silly on a practical level when I looked through it again though.
Yes, that was a long chapter, wasn't it? It took what felt like forever just to read through it again myself -- I don't know how you all can keep up with reading it :).
I don't normally review things chapter-by-chapter, but I think the fact that these entries are so long is giving me more time to get invested in the sickening ongoings. I thought the role reversal bit at the end was an interesting turn. I hope that doesn't dominate their relationship as things go forward, though it's a sensible addition to the myriad ways this man is losing his grip on his life. The lady at the mall seemed like kind of a jerk for not much reason, but I understand that was to give motivation for Kyra's reaction afterward. As usual, you manage to squeeze a lot of tension out of something as innocuous as being forced to try on clothes. Also, the ways Kyra can occasionally act sweet with the sole intention of further warping her father's mind are great (such as how the chapter ends when they go to bed). That's definitely my favorite way to see interactions take place between characters like this, because it's so subliminal, and you handle it so effectively.
Actually, the "mother"/"son" role reversal pretty much does dominate the story from here on out. For me, it doesn't get much better than that, in terms of writing material. Sorry if you don't like it as much ...
Glad you like Kyra's 'sweeter's side though, and how it serves to only mess with his head even more. A different reviewer mention Stockholm Syndrome and I think that's a pretty apt way to describe it.
Oh, don't get me wrong, role-reversal interplays are still great, and I'm sure you've done some cool stuff with it in the rest of the story. The difference is plain in their relationship in this new chapter, and I'm liking how it's shaking up the dynamics of their interactions even more. Really the only reason I said that on the last chapter was because there's far more mother-son stories than father-daughter on the site. Looking forward to seeing what else you've done.
Yeah, hopefully the father-daughter nature of their relationship will remain very apparent even as the appearance of "mothering" grows. I think it does, but let me know if you agree.
Btw, not sure if you were the one responsible for getting this story on the front page (featured stories), but if you were, then I appreciate it :). It was a big surprise when I noticed it there the other day.
Asukafan is actually the one who handles featured stories, though it was well-deserved in my book. Nice work on this new chapter too.
Well then, thanks to you both!
I'm curious how many chapters long this thing is going to be. One thing I'm particularly enjoying about this is that I just can't get a good read yet on where it's all going to end up for these two.
Good to hear. I think predictability can be good sometimes when you're looking forward to something happening and it builds anticipation, but too much predictability is probably a bad thing so I'm glad I seem to have avoided this. As always, thanks for reading.
Ashley's big sister decides to intervene in response to conduct she finds unacceptable from her smaller sibling, with some help from her friends.
No need to "fuck this chapter," I thought it was quite well done. It seemed like the purpose in the character perspectives was to get across Ashley's intense frustration and misunderstanding about what was happening, which worked well. The shift to Melody was nice, because it showed how conflicted she was in the whole thing. Both sides gave an emotional touch to the chapter, which I tend to count as just as (if not more) important as detailed imagery in any given story, which you had as well. If it made you uncomfortable to write, you can be damn sure it'll be uncomfortable for someone to read (because they can't control the variables of it at all), so that's always a good sign. Nice job here.
Thank you for the kind words, it was just...god, this was unenjoyable to write for me, and it was solely because Ashley was squirming and yelling and was met only with complete silence. That made me more uncomfortable than anything else going on.
Superb job here. The dynamics of your character conversations continue to impress. You've managed to strike a very intriguing balance throughout this story of giantesses who behave cruelly and assert their dominance, but all for a greater purpose of improving someone they care about. It's a story angle that has been done before, but I daresay this is my favorite rendition of it that I've seen. My only regret is that there wasn't more time spent with Melody tormenting her sister, as she seemed to be having the most difficult time of the three in doing her job, and the way you wrote those emotions was fascinating. Having said that, I really enjoyed the turn with Jenna's character at the end. It was an interesting resolution that made total sense and was a pleasant surprise. I'm intrigued by the mentioning of Ashley's mother seeing the report and am curious to see where you take things for the ending.
Oh jeez, that is a high amount of praise. Thank you for reading this, and for the review.
I'll admit that I really would have preferred to get about another page's worth of material into Melody's chapter, but I basically hit my limit on that one. Claire and Jenna were remarkably easy in comparison: They're talkers, and they engaged Ashley as well as recognized her. Melody's chapter, on the other hand, basically turned into a frightened, humiliated girl begging for recognition from a god who refuses to grant it for the first time in her life. Just typing that out reinforces my desire to have done more with it while reminding me why I couldn't get further than I did.
A very pleasant end. Despite the tease at the end of the previous chapter, I was guessing this was how it would go down. I liked how you hinted at the mentality of the recovering Ashley and specifically on her realization that she's a lot less powerful than she once thought. It helped give the otherwise saccharine proceedings of this chapter an undercurrent of slight foreboding. Initially I was hesitant to totally buy the rapid turnaround of her friends and sister, but you did a nice job in justifying it with their dialogue in this chapter. Fine work here with this tale, good sir. Keep it up.
I was extremely, extremely tempted to have the mother involved but by this point I was very much in denoument territory (I basically consider Ashley throwing up to be the general climax) and a confrontation with the mother wasn't something I wanted to do (also because I want her first real appearance to be elsewhere). Though I'll say that this was primarily because it would have given me a chance to show how passively imposing Melody can be even to another Omega in the right circumstances.
I'm glad the dialogue turned you around on the, uh, turnaround. It was important to me to establish the sincerity in why they did what they did, that the loving environment presented is very much the norm.
Thank you for reading, and for the kind words :)
In a world where size determines what kind of person you are, what happens when an innocent person ends up the wrong size?
It's a pretty interesting start you've got here. The conversational style of speaking meshed well with the bulk of information needed to explain your story's alternate world. I'm curious where you're going with this.
I am too honestly lol. I usually have a general idea about where I'm going but I'm largely making this up as I go. Glad you're interested though. Hopefully I can keep it up.
An entertaining read. A few small errors here and there but overall you did a nice job projecting Talia's domineering mentality while she does her thing.
As for your end note, I'd say go with your gut and specifically what interests you the most, even if it means letting other stories fall by the wayside for the time being. It's what I tend to do and I'd say it works well. Stories in general are better for it if authors work on them when they feel most invested.
Ash has been waiting for her friends to arrive all morning, but just as they arrive she is struck by a fast acting genetic disorder which reduces its victims to the size of a cockroach.
Based off of a 'New World Order' style concept where certain people are genetically susceptible to sudden shrinkage, these people being immediately stripped of their common rights and privileges are reduced to basically sub-human property for whoever finds them.
::This is likely to be quite a long story for me as 1: i'm enjoying writing it in detail, and 2: there's going to be quite a lot of body play and each segment is likely to get its own chapter.::
Hope you like it ^_^
I'm liking this. I admit I didn't have time to do much more than skim and will probably need to come back and reread it, but the foot action was fun and I enjoyed the darkly humorous interactions of the girls as they rapidly began to see their former friend as a toy. I'm surprised you say you thought the chapter was boring, as there was still quite a lot going on even though it was mostly just conversation. I'll definitely be checking back in.
Author's Response:
Heyas, thanks for commenting ^_^ I was more-so bored of the time it took me to get the chapter finished really, i got about 3 pages of it out in one night, then the last page of it was a painful hack through the final parts before i finally reached a natural stopping point for the chapter... i think i was more-so bored of the slight writers block i was going through rather than the story, i just didn't see that at the time.
Hope you do get a chance to give it a proper read (hope you like it too lol!) :)
