So lately I've read a lot of inflation/TF stories. Some of these pieces had great ideas and a lot of potential, but they fell flat because of poor writing skills. Therefore, I've decided to share my own personal writing tips with the community.
-First, map out the characters in your head. What defines them as a person? What makes them unique? How would they react to a situation? You can describe what they look like too, but a defined personality is the best way to make a character stick in your head. People will probably remember the kleptomaniac narcissist Deidra more than the busty blonde Darlene.
-Once you've got your characters, think about what's going to happen to them. You can have a structured story arc, or you can let your imagination run wild and let your tale sprawl out in whichever direction catches your fancy. I've personally used both methods, and there's no right way to do it. Keep in mind that each version has its ups and downs.
-OK, so we've set up our story, now comes the good part! This is why people are reading your story, so this should be your most engaging part. Don't be afraid to use vivid detail, which brings us to some very easy mistakes that anyone can make. Here are some don'ts.
-DON'T just tell us what's happening. Avoid cliches too. (e.g. 'Becky now looked like she was pregnant with twins.') Instead, try to find a new, interesting way to show us the inflation/TF. I make it a challenge to use an engaging, unorthodox description to convey the changes occurring in every new story of mine.
-DON'T use the same words over and over again, especially if they are uncommon. Use a thesaurus to look up new synonyms to avoid becoming boring and trite. It adds a little zing to an otherwise mundane sentence.
-DON'T make all your sentence structures the same. (e.g. 'Yolanda's breasts blew up. Her butt also inflated. Then her stomach started to swell.') This makes for a very dull read. Instead, try changing around subject or predicate positions, or adding clauses.
Here are some other miscellaneous tricks to spice up a story.
-Use plenty of dialogue. It should both stay true to the person speaking it while also remaining natural and flowing. Try actually saying the lines you wrote down for your character. You should usually be able to tell if it sounds stilted or awkward.
-Make sure you don't just leave your audience hanging after the inflation/TF has stopped. If you've done a good job with characterization, people will care about (or at least want to know) what happens to your victim after the fact. How do they adjust? What are some side effects or new obstacles? You should get the point.
-This is purely optional, but I personally like to inject my stories with witty humor and lots of irony. As trivial as this seems, sometimes it can really make a difference! Just think of how boring Guardians of the Galaxy would be if it didn't have any one-liners or pop culture references.
-Always double-check your story before submitting. Maybe there was a passive sentence you could spruce up, or a grammar mistake that you didn't notice before. Hold yourself to your personal level of quality and don't skimp!
That's about it for now, I think. I'll update this if I come up with anything else. I hope this helped!

Inflation Day
I walked into my room
Pulled out some loose clothing to wear
Then I went into my closet
And pulled out a large tank of air.
I stuck the hose in my bellybutton
I said "This is going to be great!"
I went to the airtank
And turned the knob up to eight.
I felt the air enter my body
I had hoped it would soon
That's when it actually happened
I was inflating like a balloon!
My belly was getting rounder
I poked it once or twice
My whole body was getting enormous
The feeling was very nice.
However, I was quickly losing mobility
I was bigger in width than height
Soon, I was feeling lots of pressure
And my belly feels really tight.

The Spell
Nathan was miserable. He was living alone, in a one bedroom apartment, unable to sleep, unable to think, unable to just do something . He had a job he hated, he could never keep a relationship for very long, and to top it off, he was slowly slipping into a depression. If things didn't turn around... he didn't know what would happen.
This night was no different from any other night, as he tossed and turned, unable to find a comfortable spot to sleep in. He sighed, and sat up, before grabbing his laptop, and walking out to his living room, which was a small affair, with a low ceiling and minimal furniture.
Desperate for at least a good night

My Unexpected Inflation
I didn't have time to worry about how or why. I was just kind of thrust into it as I was lying on the couch, flipping through the channels when I felt a nice tingling in my breasts.
As I looked down, I saw my boobs beginning to expand. For a second, I thought that I was seeing things. Then I suddenly felt good. REALLY good.
As I started to moan in pleasure, my belly began to grow as well. Some of my bare belly was showing through my tank top, so even more of it was beginning to pop out.
It didn't take me long to realize what was happening to me. I screamed and leapt off the couch.
I just sort of stood there in the middle of the living roo
