It happened to work well for video, but I think in literature there are other shrinking methods that work even better since they can be described in more detail:
- Orgasms coupled with being-too-horny-to-stop (as in "Always Follow the Directions" from the Minimizer's site)
- Cold, emotionaless computers executing pre-set code (as in my video "The Photographer" or that often-seen book "Short Time")
- Evil characters who can not be reasoned with (too many to count, but Johannes Lowe's "Sentenced and Shrunk" always comes to mind for me)
I think that "loss of control" is the base level of our fetish here and all of these are just different ways of dressing that up. The differences are where the fun lies. I'm always excited to come across one I've never seen before!

Thanks for chiming in RP about the sneeze effect.
If I ever win the powerball, Im going to finance a film version of Always Follow the Directions. What a great story. Features the horny shrink, plenty of shrinking out of clothes, and my favorite, the tables are turned shrink.
Another one I really like is Laundry Day by Scidram. Though, in that one, the detergent causes an orgasm, which causes the shrinking.
