Widely acceptable inflation

Do you ever thought about writing some epic story, that would:
1) Contain inflation, inflatable people.
2) Be clear enough for ordinary readers. Do not frighten or alienate them. Be fine enough to win sympathies.

I'd love to write something like that (and tried), but I'm not skilled enough.

Rathani

My current project is actually exactly along those lines.

Interesting. What is it about?

Rathani

I don't want to go too far into detail before I've even posted a single chapter, but in broad terms it's a story that is driven by a particular system of magic and its implications and consequences for the world it exists in, and one of several ways to use this system of magic involves inflation. It's a fantasy setting, though the only real fantastic element to the story is that system of magic, which is fairly strictly defined in how it works and what it can do.

I can't say precisely when chapters will start getting posted, but they'll be at rathani.deviantart.com when they are.

Nice. I'll be waiting.

Also what do you think about collaboration writing?

Probably, my current effort (ready chapters so far 1. Offer you can not refuse, 2. price of second chance) may be ok for common reader outside fetish community. Ah, of course, if I want go too rampant with erotic and inflation scenes.

I'm not personally open to writing collaborations, at least if we're talking about two authors working on the same story (as opposed to something like an author-illustrator collaboration, or even an author-editor relationship). Writing isn't really a process that lends itself well to more than one author, at least for me. The only person I've ever done a successful writing collaboration with is in a long-term relationship with me, and short of that I don't see it working.

I understand, though I didn't mean actually multiple people writing same story, rather one main writer + some commenting, occasionally editing and proposing changes. That way writing goes faster and quality improves.

The first part of the story I was talking about is up on my DeviantArt page: http://rathani.deviantart.com/#/d4g5atg

It's also been submitted for addition to the BI.org library.

Hi, I've read Rain delivery, it is fantastic, serious literature.

 

And by the way. New chapter in my series:

 Erotic is hinted, but will be there an affair at work? It is not known for now. Meanwhile, my main character starts to explore world of distant future.
