Thank you for the feedback. My initial impressions largely matched up with the areas of focus mentioned (I also did a little googling), but it’s very helpful to hear how they apply in the context of size writing. The visual/emotional balance is one that has to be struck anew for every story, and I think it’s important to keep that balance consistent over the course of the story.
One challenge I’ve had ever since I started writing size stories is gauging the right level of description. Popular fetish-writing guides tell you to err on the side of too much description rather than not enough; in the case of Size, the reader wants to be constantly told how huge or tiny everything is to the POV character. One thing I’ve tried to keep in mind is that objects (and people) can both physical size and dramatic size. The Biggo’s hand might be the relative size of a small car, but if the Biggo is the POV character’s only hope for survival then their hand will seem even bigger.

I feel like I did something like this when I built up the protagonist of The Interview as an accomplished woman only to have her meet an absurd and ignominious end.
