    Hey everyone! I just started sharing my stories, and I have to say it's lots of fun! I wanted to just drop in and say hi, I'm really interested in this thread! I like to focus on developing my sims and their stories, therefor creating dynamic characters who change thorough the story. I tend to focus less on the jobs and skills and more on their families, and relationships. I also like challenges like the legacy challenge. I tried it back in TS3 and got to generation 5...and I don't know what happened to the family. I came here mainly because of @CathyTea. She has been such a kind person, and has helped me in creating my blog. So once I saw that she was a part of this thread, I had to check it out! So what's going on with everyone!? :)

    Hi there!

    My name's Stephanie. I'm obviously new-ish to the forums, but I've stumbled across a few Sim stories around and they've piqued my interest. I'm working on a legacy challenge and am hoping to write a story along side it. Just wanted to introduce myself because I imagine I'll be on this board quite frequently!

    In the meantime, I'm scrolling through the last few pages and checking out some of the previous posters' stories.

    I'm so glad I found these forums - I always thought I was a little wacky for writing stories about my sims. :P

    Welcome! Welcome!

    You may be wacky, but we're all wacky here! :D

    So embrace your wackiness and go nuts! :)

    She would love that. But you would most likely come away from your hugging experience completely soaked in dog slobber! :D

    All the time! LOL! And whenever I feel that way, I always remind myself to unhook from having other people reading my work as a source of motivation. I've gotten to the point where I like it when I feel that no one reads my work because then, I can write more bravely--I don't have to worry about whether anyone "likes" it or comments or who reads or who doesn't. I can focus in on just writing because I've got a Sim story to explore. That feeling gives me freedom and strength.

    So now, when I get that feeling of having no one reading my work, I get secretly happy. It means I get to work on finding my way back to the feeling of freedom and strength that comes from writing for the intrinsic joy of writing. And that's what I love most of all!

    And... the great irony is that so many people do read it and love it! It's probably an ok feeling to have, since it lets you stay true to your vision and write even the tough stuff that you've got to write!

    Hi there!

    My name's Stephanie. I'm obviously new-ish to the forums, but I've stumbled across a few Sim stories around and they've piqued my interest. I'm working on a legacy challenge and am hoping to write a story along side it. Just wanted to introduce myself because I imagine I'll be on this board quite frequently!

    I'm so glad I found these forums - I always thought I was a little wacky for writing stories about my sims. :P

    Welcome :) Great that you found this thread, it's a great supportive community for writers and aspiring writers :) Looking forward to reading your Legacy!
    Ugh, too much thinking about my story tonight at work has resulted in random storytelling doubts about things to come... And I can't even vent about my concerns because of major spoilers :lol:

    But plum it all, I'm just gonna write this thing as planned and not change anything. I'm way too far in to go back now :tongue:

    Ugh. Part of me is SO excited to shift my focus to the much-less-stressful PNN once D2D is all over, not gonna lie :lol:

    I don't want D2D to be over because it's soooo awesome but on the other hand I want to know the ending xD

    Yeah, my second story 'Discovery' has a drop dead thread xD no one ever comments. But one or two people always like on my blog so that is enough for me to keep going :) And also I write this story for myself because I'm in love with the plot. It's a smaller story that I will be able to end soon so I will be proud of myself for pulling through :)

    @Babydollanne of course no one comments for a while if you don't update. But when you update again, readers will come back ^^ bookmarks stay in place :D
