    It always hurts to have one of your favorite characters die. But remind yourself; "It's part of the story." "It must be done for the story." And so on.

    That's tough @Sourocha :(@rednenemon gave some great advice though! That's what helped me get through Luc and Hazel. It's still painful though. Hugs to you!

    @Sourocha: I'm glad you have good people like @rednenemon and @CitizenErased14 top tell you otherwise because I find death to be easy. It's keeping characters suffering yet living that's the hardest.

    You can do it though! <3

    Thanks, everyone! @CitizenErased14, @rednenemon and you are right, @InfraGreen, and some say that the death of someone has more impact on the living than the person that died. ;) Well, at least they are in a better place... :D

    @Emma-LeeXOXO I have two planners, one for my personal life & goals and a more detailed one for story ideas ^^ I use ~4 pages at the beginning of the planner as an index so I can just use the pages however I want to. I do chapter outlines, mindmaps and characters sheets in there ^^ the personal planner just has reminders like "Write a chapter today" or sth like that.

    @Sourocha - Awww man! Yeah, that's a tough situation to be in. You know it has to be dome for the story, but it doesn't make it any easier. :cry: I know I'll ha e to face that at some point and it's gonna be tough.

    @Everyone - Hope you all are having a great holiday period. Today, I've been working on my stories and am hoping to get my next "Forever in Time" chapter released in a bit but wanted to pop in and say "Hi" to everyone first.

    My heart was kinda sad today at the death of Carrie Fisher. I really enjoyed her as Princess Leia in Star Wars and liked the book she wrote about her mother and growing up as Debbie Reynolds' daughter. She had am awesome sense of humor that will be misse, along with her great talent as an actress.

    Also, there may be a few folks on here old enough to remember the singing group Wham. I was also bummed at the death of George Michael. Again, more talent that will be missed. :(

    @friendsfan367 - IKR?! :( The last one I was super bummed over was Alan Rickman, who played Snape in the Harry Potter moves. I absolutely adored him in that role. :( The one I actually cried over was Michael Clarke Duncan (John Coffey in "The Green Mile".) He was perfect in that role and I was quite taken with him in that movie. So sad. :(

    Thanks @Julyvee94 . I've been using OneNote to write out chapter outlines and things. I thinking of just color coding sim info as green in my planner and doing the reminders like you "write a chapter today" stuff. I think if I try another other paper source for writing I'm going to get overwhelmed and disappear again.

    Aw. This makes me sad. So many lovely movies and songs she shared with us.

    We sure lost a lot of beautiful people in 2016... here's to all the celebrities and also to all those whose names we might not have heard and who leave empty spaces, all the same...

    Let's fill those empty spaces with love.

    Putting the image in here

    Yeah, it's resolving the end of the image address instead of (dot) gif it's showing as plum.

    i know how you feel. i lost dozens of favorites.but one was totally my sims fault if your bed is on fire you should probably wake up from your nap and go outside.

    ayden would probably have died yesterday but my game glitched.
