Chapter 37

Time sure does fly when you are running the best and only lab in the city. I have had my schedule fully booked for months. Being the workaholic I am, that does not bother me. I love giving lectures, running workshops, overseeing research, and developing personal projects. It is what I do.

Small Fry- Chapter 4

Andrea's expression tells me she's feeling guilty. Outwardly, she looks calm. I know the difference, having worked with her for many years. It's subtle, the way her eyelids droop, or the slight wrinkle between her eyebrows. She tends to tilt her head lower when she's feeling this way. When I make...

Small Fry - Chapter 3

I tend to be a pretty heavy sleeper. Noise, light, and temperature rarely wake me. I didn't even think that motion would do it, until I feel the floor begin to shake. I stir, slowly, blinking as my eyes adjust to the light. I'm in a bed that isn't my own, in a place that I don't recognize. That m...

Taking your Questions

Since we won't have a MG chapter this week, I've decided to do something a little different. Until next week, I will be taking questions and answering them in character. You can address your questions to any of the characters in the story. I will limit each patron to 2 questions. With that in min...

Schedule changes

Hey guys, I hope you're enjoying MG and Small Fry. Due to life issues, I haven't been able to write for some time. Rather than rush a chapter of MG, I'm going to take a break for a week to catch up. I've only taken one other break week since I started uploading way back in September, so forgive m...

Chapter 36

I kneel on the floor of my bedroom, a short distance from the city's border. Looking down from above, I see a sizeable group of people gathered in the plaza outside city hall. I hold my phone in my hand, switching between glancing at it and the people below. I'm currently connected to a broadcast...

Small Fry - Chapter 2

A sudden bright light envelops me, making my body tingle. I feel an external force, as if I'm being pulled on in multiple directions, before losing my balance. I close my eyes, enduring the strange sensations until they ultimately subside. Only then do I open my eyes and look around.

Chapter 35

"I still can't believe you've got a whole city in your bedroom. It's crazy no matter how you look at it!" Sara throws her hand up in the air.

"If you think that's crazy, wait until you see what the place used to look like. It was nothing more than a barren plot of land just a few...

Small Fry - Chapter 1

There's nothing I hate more than being woken up. The feeling of being ripped from a peaceful sleep ought to be illegal. 

The sound of a phone ringing forces me awake. The device vibrates far too violently for something so small, banging against the wood of my bedside table. ...

Short Story #2 - Progress Update 2

Hey everyone, I am pleased to announce that the Reducing story (name tbd) is more than half finished. Look forward to reading the first chapter here a week before it goes up on giantessworld. My current goal is Monday, the 27th, but it might be the week after. 

Thank you for your patie...

Chapter 34

"Please watch your step, Ms. Mayor. The stairway isn't always stable." Nick warns, offering his arm to support me. His concern brings a smile to my face. 

"Thank you, Nick. I am fine walking on my own. I appreciate the gesture, but I'm not that old yet."

"H-...

Mini Poll #4

Thank you to everyone who voted in the previous poll. Since it seems the split is close to 50/50 on the growth or shrinking aspect of the giantess, I have another question for you all.

What do you like better, a gentle giantess or a cruel one? Tell me why in the comments.

Chapter 33

Calling the car ride with Mom 'awkward' would be putting it lightly. Despite her cheerful mood and near-giddy smile, I cannot stop thinking about what she did. It hasn't even been twenty four hours since she gave me and the tinies the biggest scare of our lives! I haven't had a chance to process ...

Mini Poll #3

I definitely have a preference for 'normal' sized women around very tiny people. Extreme size difference is a recurring theme in my stories. That got me wondering what you all prefer. Please let me know, preferably with a comment explaining why!

Chapter 32

"Your mom really did a number on the North side. It's not terrible, though! We'll fix it in no time. Right, Ori?"

"Of course. Buildings can always be rebuilt." She replies, smiling.

I stare at the two of them through our video call. I hold my phone in one hand, w...

Short Story #2 - Progress Update

My schedule has been so busy lately that I've barely been able to focus on MG, let alone smaller projects. I want to let you all know that I've begun on the Reducing story that won the vote, but I've changed a few things about it. The theme and tone remain the same, but the main character has bee...

Chapter 31

I don't remember the last time I felt this angry. The closest thing would be when Sara and I had our argument, but even then, I didn't feel this way. My face feels hot and I feel like screaming. 

I was out shopping for groceries when my phone started going off. Text after te...

Chapter 30

"Oriiiii!" Louis whines at me.

"Patience, Lou. We're almost done."

"But Ori..." He pouts, crossing his arms over his chest defiantly. "It's boring. I want to go play."

Wherever did he learn that? Not from me, surely. I wiggle my pen in front of h...

Mini Poll #2

I hope everyone is enjoying MG so far. I'm always looking to improve my writing, so criticism is welcome! Here's a quick question regarding our main character, and lovely giantess, Jeannine. 

Is there anything specific you'd like to see her do in the story? ...

Chapter 29

My eyes light up as my final’s grades appear on my laptop screen. I must hand it to my professors for delivering the grades so quickly. It's hardly been a week since the last of my exams.

"Straight A's, even in that one class I thought for sure I'd get a B in!" I cheer, my clas...

Chapter 28

"Thank you for your time." I tell the Head Chef, while Robin adds to his notes. "Your story was a real eye-opener."

"No, thank you for listening to me ramble on! I haven't seen any of the other candidates taking the time to come out and get to know people." The man tells us, half...

Question time!

Hey guys, I hope everyone is doing well. I have a question that I'm hoping one of you can answer for me. 

I've been eager to commission art for MG for a while now. I'm looking to either have Jeannine drawn or a scene from the story so far. However, I'm struggling to find an ...

Chapter 27

"I'm going for a walk. Does anyone need anything?"

"We're good, Mom. Do you think you'll be out long?" My daughter asks me, cheerfully. 

The eagerness in her tone is hurtful, though she doesn't seem to realize that. Thankfully, Mark is far better at reading ...

Short Story Poll #2 Results

Thank you to those who casted their vote! You've spoken and it looks like the Reducing story is the one you all want. Personally I'm not fond of somber stories, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I have no estimate for when you'll see the first chapter at this time. I hope to begin on it soon, if...

Chapter 26

"That last exam was surprisingly easy." I laugh. "I almost regret studying so hard."

"Happy for you. Meanwhile, I'm praying that I didn't fail." Sara groans.

My best friend and I ride the bus back from campus. After a week of intense exams, it's a relief to be do...

Poll #2 Voting ends soon

Hello all, don't forget to cast your vote for the second short story poll if you haven't already. The vote will be closing soon and I will announce the winner.

At this time only 10 out of 18 of you Brobs have voted. I'd rather not declare a winner when only half have participated...

Chapter 25

The task of building a town was nothing special. It wasn't as complex as it was time consuming. This land that we've been given was essentially 'blank'. It was sort of like a white canvas, just waiting for a painter to come along and put their brush to it.

A city is so much more ...

Short Story Poll #2

Now that Mutually Assured is complete, it's time we vote on the next short story. There are some new ideas I've come up. I've also scrapped some of the ideas from the previous poll. I hope to find out what interests you guys the most. Take a look:

1. Being small isn’t always a ...

Mutually Assured - Chapter 4

I watched as Leon climbed up my fingernail. It took him some time, which is sort of cute in its own right. To think, he is so tiny that my fingernail alone is something to be climbed. It really does put things in perspective. I tried my best not to make any abrupt movements for his sake. Once he ...

Chapter 24

"Hmm..." Sara groans. "Don't tell me! I know this one..."

The two of us sit on opposite sides of my couch. In my hand is a flashcard; a random one I pulled from the stack I prepared for her. Each one has a term on one side and its definition on the other. I hold the side with the...
