Introduction
Hello dear reader, first and foremost I would like to thank all you giants, giantesses, littles, and normals who are reading this guide. You’re the reason I’m writing this guide. To help you survive in a world several times your height, or be able to take care of your tiny friends.
This guide I will update weekly to provide you with facts, strategies, tools and information you need to survive as a few inch tall being. For simplicities sake the guide will be based on the shrunk person being 3-4 inches tall. I’m also going to assume your cloths shrunk with you. Of all the things I can and will tell you in this guide, the following things I will not. How to shrink, returning to your normal size, and sex (For obvious reasons). As I add chapters and such feel free to post comments, questions or even add your own chapters.

Chapter 1 : Your First Day shrunk
Shrinking is pretty much an unknown part of the universe, therefore, it could happen anywhere and to anyone… lets say… YOU! Now since I don’t personally know you, your living conditions or anything like that, I’m gonna go with a scenario vague enough that would work for anyone. If you happen to be a girl who wants to shrink, just switch the words guy, boy, etc. with Girl, woman, etc.
It’s a peaceful afternoon, and you’re at home. You’re life’s been going great, and you decided to relax a bit. After watching TV, you feel a little sleepy, and you take a nap. An hour or so later you wake up and notice everything around you is Bigger! After a while it hits you, you’ve shrunk to a few inches tall. You’ve always wanted to be shrunk, maybe meet a hot giantess.
Sadly its not that easy. Think about it, at your size you can’t open doors, reach the top shelf or anything, and your home alone. Someone may eventually enter your home, a room mate, or family member, or someone, but who knows when that would happen? Aside from that what about the threats of being small, ordinary bugs and rodents could kill you, a spider bite could even rip your throat out!
Being shrunk with no one around can be a dangerous thing, that’s why you need to know where useful supplies are, so you can survive your own home. Food, weaponry, tools, even shelter. Knowing how to get these is a very important thing when on your own.
Tools
The Kind of tools you need very upon the type of living conditions you have. Of all the tools the following are essential.
1. Grappling Hook
2. String
3. Tacks (Can be used both as a weapon and for scaling walls.)
Weapons
Unless you had a gun with you when you shrunk, you won’t find any fire arms in this area. Maybe you had a pocketknife with you which could always help in tough situations, but always have a few backup weapons.
Toothpicks- These are basically your mini spears, and can be quite helpful when fending off bugs. Anything bigger than the largest household spider or centipede however, may cause the toothpick to break.
Plastic toy weapons- These are your toy plastic swords and things that you gave your favorite action figures. This are much more durable than toothpicks but need to be sharpened if you want them to be lethal.
Model Weapons- If you ever go to a hobby store, some have model soldiers that come with their own arsenal of swords and spears. These are usually sharp if you buy the metal ones, and as long as your careful with them they can prove to be the most reliable weapon… next to your normal sized girlfriend or boyfriend, but more on that in a few chapters.
Food
At normal height getting food is as easy as opening a door… which means at 3 inches in height your in trouble. If you’re a messy eater, simply take food that’s on the floor… so long as its not stale or moldy. If its summer, be warned of ants, they can invade your home in the hundreds, and could swarm you.
I’d guess if this weren’t an option for you, you’d need a grappling hook, or tacks. Climb towards your food and bring out your knife or whatever and open up a bag of chips. One family size one can feed you for weeks.
Shelter
So you’ve got food, weapons, and tools, but shelter? Your in your own home, why would shelter be a problem? The answer… bugs. Unless you plan staying up all night, your toothpick by your side, fighting off any creepy crawlies looking for their midnight snack your gonna need a safe place for the night. Remember, your home alone, without a giant protector, there’s nothing to scare the bugs away. When making a shelter, it needs to be sturdy, not allow bugs to get in, and still allow air. The best solution is if for some lucky reason, that you build a lego house, its safe, sturdy, and who are you kidding, if you’ve ever wanted to shrink, that means you don’t mind acting a bit like a kid, and there’s nothing better than getting out some legos.
If legos aren’t available, other things can work such as toy houses, cars, etc. If none of these are possible to get, making a tent could work just as well.
With your supplies ready, and you can get a good night sleep, tomorrow will be a big day… finding your giant/giantess!

Chapter 2:Travel
This chapter will be all about getting from point A to point B and any in between. This will include methods of transportation, how safe they are for a little, and how far they’ll get you. It will also include things such as camping, being discovered, weather, etc.
Normal Car: unless you have someone to drive you, a normal car is too big for you. Note its possible that a seat belt could crush you so a safer mode of protection would be the cup holder if padded or if your normal friend has a pocket to place you in.
Shoes: I cant remember how many stories I’ve read on writing.com that had the shrunken hero hitch a ride on an oncoming shoe. This mode of transportation varies. When your thinking about jumping on a shoe always think of the possibilities…
-Does he/she look like their in a hurry or troubled? If so they could run or stumble and you’ll end up as flat as a bloody pancake.
-Smell? Even if you have a thing for feet, if there’s a strong smell you could suffocate.
-Is the shoe tied? What if it falls off the normal persons foot? This could be a problem considering you may become discovered (more on this later).
Toys: This is the most varied category, but the most helpful as well. This includes hot wheels, RC’s, but most importantly Tech-Decks.
-RC’s go far, they are fast but getting control of it is the hard part. You’d need to take the remote to the car, and hope it won’t need batteries for a while. Another thing is its not that conspicuous.
-Tech-Decks are by far the best class of transport next to a normal human. These include toy replicas of Skateboards, scooters, and bikes. They don’t run out of battery, they go far if the terrain permits, they have interchangeable parts, and are practically built for your size! They are also light weight if you have to go on foot.
Paper Airplanes- Simply put, these are the most fun. They are light, can go far, and come on, flying is awesome. The only problem is you need a normal to launch you so this isn’t made for long journeys. The other problem is there’s a good chance you’ll crash!
Animals-Unless it’s a pet that recognizes you and likes you don’t bother taming a wild animal. A loyal Dog would probably help, but there’s the possibility of a dog catcher getting him.
On foot- Reliable, less equipment to worry about, and slow. You have a better chance if you need to hide.
Normal Human-This is the best and worst way to travel, it depends on the person, how they carry you and how they treat you. Here are some things to look for when talking about safety. Not all things may apply
Safe…
1. They are a friend of yours
2. They are nice
3. They keep you somewhere safe when traveling (Pocket, on head or shoulder, in cleavage razz )
Not Safe…
1. They are mean
2. They don’t like you
3. Their keeping place is questionable (In stomach, under foot, in cage that has the word Labs or Laboratory or testing, {in which you may find yourself being disected} etc.)
People
During your travels people are a mixed blessing. If you are without the boyfriend/girlfriend that you want to be tiny with, there’s always a chance someone may find you and want to be that person. However in other cases you may find yourself in a place you don’t like and you’re a slave/prisoner. The worst case scenario is your found by a scientist. They will claim to have discovered you as a new species of some sort, and a whole thing will start. News will spread, people will know about you, some may argue towards your freedom etc. In any case its unwanted attention. In the end you may find yourself being dissected.
Weather
In many shrinking stories weather is never a problem, in the real world, drizzle or light snow can be a deadly enemy. Always seek shelter during any weather you think is dangerous. It doesn’t matter what just get out of there. You may be lucky and even meet someone who likes you and wants to keep you.

Maybe you could have a chapter on what to do if you find yourself in the possession of a not so nice normal sized human. I'll try and think of some other things.

Being Tiny, the Pros and Cons
This chapter is going to go over pro cons and miscellaneous facts about being as small as you are. These facts are good to know for later chapters.
Cons-
1. Anything heavier than 1/6 a pound can squash you.
2. You can only play hand held video games or NES games. Unless the controller shrunk with you and is wireless, a normal controller is too big.
3. You a human being are no longer on top of the food chain.
4. For the vore fans, unless you were shrunk by some sort of magic that makes you indestructible, if you get swallowed you will be digested. Stomach acid is very powerful and only the mucus lining your stomach protects it from destroying itself. To the giants/giantesses, if you have a shrunk person, and are vore fans never swallow! And if you do, throw up right away!
5. Your strength is scaled down to how you were shrunk. If you were shrunk to a fourth your height, you can only lift a fourth the normal weight.
6. Night will be scarier than you remember. There are so many things we are ignorant to, when shrunk, sometimes our mind will play tricks on us in the dark and alone.
7. It’s pretty easy to drown. If you should ever go for a “swim” make sure you have a lifeguard, aka your giant/giantess
Pros-
1. No bathroom breaks, being as small as you are, whatever you eat, your body will convert it all into energy. You’ll need it for everyday tasks. With everything used up, you don’t have to worry about going behind a bush.
2. No worries about sickness. All your cells are too tiny to be effected by a virus. Viruses hijack cells to produce more viruses. If the virus cant fit inside a cell then it cant cause you sickness.
3. To a giant(ess) you are a very cost efficient pet/room mate/ significant other
4. Hiding placed are easy to find.
(the list will have additions as I think of them)

Chapter 3 : Enter the Giants
This chapter will give a brief preview of the types of giants you will face. They go into basically two different categories, although there can be other types. Gentle, and Evil God(dess).
Gentle Giant(ess)
Have no fear of these giants, they are kind, caring, and gentle (Duh). This of course applies as long as they know your there, and aren’t really mad. You are a pet to them… or maybe a special someone and they will always care for you. Odds are you’ll be sleeping with your new friend.
Expect…
Hugs, Kisses, Food, Games such as hide and seek, being picked up gently, etc.
Evil God(ess)
These are a big problem, if captured by one of these, get used to the term slave and god, guess which one you are. A few common characteristics about Evil ones. First off, they will demand usually one of a few things. Massages, doing chores, or sex… aggressive sex. If any of these needs that they demand are unfulfilled, expect a slow and painful death. Sadly escape is a hard thing for these people because usually, you’ll end up in a cage. Escape will be covered in a later chapter.
Expect…
Torture, pain, being tired, etc.
Other variations can be seen among you and your giant(ess), but these are usually obvious, extensions from the two main characters.

To everyone who reads this guide, I just want to say that I'm taking a break from it for a few weeks. I've been having a bit of difficulty writing this past week, so I think I'm gonna try and actually write a real shrink story to get my writing better. I will still update this when I get the chance.
