Does anyone remember (or better yet, did anyone save) these stories? They were written by one of the best new writers I've seen in a long time. Her voice reminded me of the (sadly retired) GOAT EmilyEW aka Emilywithlove. Both stories were posted within roughly the last year. Growth Mindset was about a young woman who drove her uncle's car down to FL from MN, expanding her mind and waistline along the way. Big Easy was about a woman leaving CA for NOLA to embrace a life of food and weight gain. I cannot remember the author's name or find the stories archived anywhere. Thanks!

PS: Mysterious author, if you're lurking and happen to see this, you're missed!

Awesome thanks!

While we’re on this roll, there was a new writer here last year who wrote a couple of excellent stories with great pacing. I can’t remember her name but the first story was Growth Mindset and was about a young woman taking a road trip from the mid west to Florida to trade cars for her uncle. While on the way she decides to gain as much weight as possible. The next story she wrote was called The Big Easy. It was about a woman leaving California and moving to NOLA to start life as a big woman. I was really disappointed to see her disappear and I wish I could find her work archived.

Does anyone know where to find these stories now?

Does anyone particularly have access to the Melanie Bell (I think) stories?

She also went by Emilywithlove if that helps.

She wrote female only stories that combined huge appetites, weight gain, and humor. Her protagonists were all gaining (or at least initially stuffing) voluntarily. If gains were accidental, they were eventually embraced and purposefully accelerated. I particularly enjoyed her protagonists' POVs during their indulgences. Her pacing was especially good. Every chapter was climactic.
Some of her works include Angela's Farm, Sainte-Isabelle, and a fat sorority series that I can unfortunately no longer find. She made beautiful digital art as well that sometimes contained brief narratives.

Emily, if you read this, know that your work is appreciated and missed

Sorry if this isn't the right forum to ask, but I couldn't find a more appropriate one. I've accepted that my favorite author, EmilyEW has retired for good. Her stories are my favorite in the genre. Can anyone recommend a similar author?

Same. She has a very unique voice and talent. Her pacing in particular is excellent.
I hope she’s living her life to the fullest to return full of inspiration. And pies.

Does anyone know where she’s migrated to now? It looks like she’s left p@tri0n and Devi@n+@rt. She’s the GOAT and I miss her work.

I agree completely!
I hope her sabbatical is fulfilling in every sense of the word
