Stressed. For a reason i'll disclose later, i've been downloading lots of stuff (Music, audio files for animation memes, and some videos i like), and speed writing, but all the pressure is kinda stressing me out.
Does anyone have any tips for writing multiple chapters of a story in one day, without the chapter seeming rushed? :P
(I'm also slightly shook cause i got a fake virus message with a robot voice, and unexpected robot voices freak the Plum out of me. Lol)
Ah no @LyricSimsz15 . I had that once; the fake virus message. Super scary. Best thing is to not click anything, because that's what it wants you to do.
I can help you with the multiple chapters. I do it all the time for Friends of Foes. I tend to prepare a batch of chapters to cover the uni term. What I do is write a basic plan of where I want to go with the story. Then I write by hand a draft of the chapters. I like to write by hand first because it allows my brain to slow down. Also, somehow I feel less stressed when writing creatively by hand. I suppose subconsciously I feel I don't need to write well. Also, you can take your pad and paper anywhere. I like to write my drafts outside in one of the paddocks. I give myself about a week to write my drafts. Then I go in and screenshot the chapters. After that, I put the pictures with the words on my blog and save them. Then I go in and edit the chapters.
Hope this helps.
also get well @chalicen . That super plums. I've been sick too lately, but the doctor's still don't know what's wrong. *Heavy sigh*. We're getting there though. Hopefully the next bout of tests give us some clues. XD
Thanks! You get well too Being sick is always plummy.
You have a really different way of writing to me! I guess I'm just a disorganised person in general haha...
Nah! There's lots of different methods of writing. This works for me, but may not necessarily work for everyone. As the saying goes, "horses for courses."
What really matters in the end is that you're pleased with the chapters that you release. And your chapters are super awesome.
I've recently started a legacy family(started with one sim), my founder is coming up to her adult days and already has one child but plans to have another one. I'm still working on her backstory among other things. She makes pretty decent money along with her partner, they have an elder cat and a dog. I have a lot of writing to do but then I also just want to play to like make more story stuff. lol

Hi @Aerinxx ! Nice to meet you. I'm Cog. Ooh you're starting a legacy? What fun! What does the founder do for a living?
The feeling when you just spent hours building and creating a sim and then forget to save them.... I literally spent half of last night getting this sim perfect and they are gone
Hello all, happy Friday! Here's another chapter of the Keen Legacy - and it's a sad chapter because there is a character who passes away. It feels strange to say "Enjoy!" after that, but... enjoy!

Do you also play The Elder Scrolls Online? You can find me there as CathyTea, too!
Oh wow! Congratulations! Speaking of which, why are you torturing us over in your thread?
So cool! Congrats!

I'll put it in a spoiler because it contains pictures. Also contains @LegacySims2017 !
She thought he would be even cooler in checkered pants.
Joseph thought otherwise, and was devastated.
So Sage accepted Joseph's fashion wisdom and started spreading his style instead!
