My brand new TS3 story is on, and if you are into Mermaids, Sailors, Rings or Rocks - tune in! 
Please see next post for links to chapters and info on next update, or my blog Simmerville's Sims for the same.
Hope Terra is told with no dialogues, hoping to keep text shorter and less detailed. Each chapter might span several years, and the first season will cover 6-12 chapters updated every date ending with a fat, orange zero. The story formally started on January 20
The concept is simple, yet quite complicated: One Mermaid meets one stranded Sailor, and they start their dynasty on a very small island surrounded by sea. I have some crazy plans that will unfold later! Although the world seems to be mostly water, down in the deep exists detailed locations that are important to the regional Mer People's history and traditions.
January 10 a chapter zero was posted - an introduction to Mermaid Hope's background. She will soon become part of an even bigger game that she isn't really aware of. This group of Mer People is about to die out, and Hope is their rescue - not applauded by all fins down there!
While this story focuses on plots and characters, there will also be future technical challenges due to lack of land and lots. As always, I love to develop new sims being born in game, paying attention to their personality and skills, actually trying to understand them, and make their true characters colour, if not form, the story. The limited land and individs might make this game run smoothly on my old computer, too
Please check back! A list of direct links to all available chapters is provided below!

It would be better if I didn't come up with new projects because they seem to take a lot of time. And I should know that from earlier stories LOL.
Chapter 1, that will be posted on January 20th, is as good as ready. So guess there won't be any delay this time!
Remember - a new update on every date ending with a fat, orange zero!
There's still 5 more days to wait for the next update. I can reveal that numerous babies will pop out in the next ipdate, LOL. I just realized there's not a lot for them to do while growing up on such a small island in the open ocean. No school, no neighbours except those living down in the sea, of course...
If you fancy to read a mermaid story, there's already 3 chapters published.
Chapter 3 - Family life. Guess how many kids mermaid Hope and sailor Rasmus had this far!?
Hope is alone with the four kids on Hope Terra. Kids learns about their granddad, merman Aquator Merez.
Love your avatar!
Hope Terra is updated only on dates ending with a fat, orange zero (oh, how I low saying that line!), and next zero date will be March 10th. Easy for all to remember, just think of Hope's orange ring
Hope takes the two boys to Mersea North, to inspect the spreading toxics...
Here's some pictures, more on my blog:
Chapter 7: Fenced in
All of Hope's kids are now teens, and they are getting into the challenges of who will keep the only house on Hope Terra? Will there be room for them all? When they grow up, will they find spouses from the Mer People? Will they be able to bring on this family at all. Even Hope worries for the future...
