Also in my experience it seems straight ffa’s are more into already fat guys as opposed to ones who are skinny or want to become fat, i could stand corrected on this but it seems to be the general consensus

Munchies:
There are a good chunk of FFAs who prefer a "blank slate" so to speak. A thin man that they can fatten as much as they'd like. And then there are FFAs like me that don't care about the start weight.

MottiF:
So where are you all? I am a blank slate ready to be fattened up 🤩

I think the later is a bit more common in female fat admirers than the former compared to men who are fat admirers, but there’s no data to compare the figures

Munchies:
Mayhaps, but the female FA scene is more ... underground. Sure, some are vocal, but most keep it on the DL until they can make sure the guy isn't a creep. They mostly talk about their preferences with other women.

Morbidly A Beast:
Well for what it’s worth it seems the vocal ones are into guys who are already big or don’t care one way or another. It’s to bad men can’t help themselves not to be creeps sometimes. But I get it. Better to be safe than sorry.

Ex Jock:
Lol I love this. The thought of a mysterious secret society type discussing hidden reputation and giving “pass” “fail” to all the gainers out there. I will take this into consideration. I know that’s an exaggeration but it’s funny to think about.

One thing I can add to this lovely thread is to dip your toes into fanfiction.

It’s a very popular way for people to get into writing and hone their craft. You already have a world and characters laid out for you, so it’s easier to jump right in and write. However, there’s a huge subset of fanfiction that takes place in AUs(alternate universes) which allows you the chance to place these characters in very different circumstances.

This used to be frowned upon forever ago when I first started, but it’s considered a very acceptable means of exploring your writing ability these days.

I actually have a horror AU fanfiction that I will be reworking a bit to turn into an original short story or translate it into a screenplay.

If there’s a fictional IP(intellectual property) that you particularly enjoy, definitely give it a try. There’s also quite a few weight-gain themed fanfiction as well, so you can try out some ideas on the already established characters. Oh, and you don’t even need to post it. Just do it for you!

Otherwise, some of the best advice I can give is to not push yourself to write like someone else. It’s obviously important to read as much as possible, but don’t try to compare your “voice” to others. Learn from what you’re reading. See what’s popular. Then hone your own style. It’s just like “art”: everyone has their own style and it’s what sets them a part. It would be a pretty boring world if everyone wrote or drew the same. Minds work different and yours is beautiful!

I have a clear writing style that I’ve been molding since the long, long ago. The before time. High School. People either like it or they don’t. Not everyone is going to love what or how you write. I’ve read critically acclaimed stories and couldn’t get into them at all. Or just didn’t understand the appeal. Try to make yourself happy first. Someone will love it just as much!

The show don’t tell is very important. I read a lot of stories that go WAY too in-depth with descriptions that it feels jarring. I like to write just enough so the reader can imagine the rest. I have used numbers twice in the story I’ve posted here, but always framed as a maybe. Never a set weight. I use the descriptions of the overweight character to fuel the reader’s, and another character’s, imagination. Unless the character is actively weighing themselves all the time, or it ties into the theme, I don’t believe an average person will know their EXACT weight at any given time. It’s been a year since I’ve weighed myself and I just have to ballpark it. Ha!

Re-read your work, use a beta reader, or even take advantage of the plethora of online tools and apps that will double check your grammar. Don’t trust the automated help implicitly. Take the suggested corrections as they are: suggestions. Compare to what you’ve already written and go from there. Sometimes it’s just enough for you to go, “Oh, man! I could totally write that differently!”

There are also some interesting guides on erotic writing on Amazon Kindle Unlimited that I’ve perused. I don’t agree with all the advice, but the books impart some concepts that may help if you’re looking to write more erotica.

Hopefully, my input is somewhat helpful!

Edit: Just to drive home the “re-read your work” advice: I re-read already published works all the time. If I find an issue, I go in and edit it. I found a few just now re-reading ‘The Wolf’ and dived right into the editor to fix the issues.

Munchies:
So true, bestie. What works for one doesn't work for all. And what works for you now may not work for you later.

It's best to just ease into things and adjust until things feel right for you.

When my partner and feedee was gaining, we'd do it in spurts. We both love extreme gaining, so we'd go super intense for a few days or weeks and then take a break.

Finish8000:
So your partner would do something
like a week of big gains and then recuperate to allow their body to adjust?

Drugsarefunny:
This depends very much on the individual. In my case, I get very discouraged when I try to gain half a kilo a week and I don't achieve it. I prefer to eat my way and let myself go.

But as I said, it all depends on how you want to organize yourself.

Ky Belly Boy:
I would like to gain a a steady pace like ten pounds a month. I think that is doable. That's two and a half pounds a week

Swedebert:
So for the recent weeks I’ve been stuffing myself almost everyday with all sorts of snacks and fattening foods, and chugging heavy cream. I haven’t been able to weigh myself but I have for sure gained weight I can feel it and see it. Hopefully I’ve crossed over the line of being overweight now which is exciting because I was only a few pounds away last time I weighted myself several weeks ago.

So now I have this tight feeling around my midsection, especially in my upper belly and around belly button, but some on my sides as well. Skin feels tight and stretched. Have anyone else experienced this from a period of really trying to gain weight?
Could it be a sign of new fat forming without having the skin adapted yet. It’s almost the same feeling as when you’re really stuffed, but I’m not I have an empty belly. It feels so heavy and tight, but with soft fat.
Or is it more likely a result of excess water or digestion from all the food?

What do you guys think?
