  You'll all be glad to hear that my spamming will stop. I have settled myself and decided that enough is enough... My actor has a blog, my actor has a story....
  
  I am ready for my unveiling (and I hope my computer can count cos I am only, like, 3 words under the limit!! ) I am also hoping that my cutting out of words hasn't detracted from the story, we can only see.
  
  And so, with out further ado...

  This is my sim actor Dalton Anderson's first (of many) published appearances. Navigate through his personal blog and discover...

  Aww... That's sooo sad! *Turns away from screen to sniff, and it's not because of the cold...* Loved it!

  @Spottydog714 Thank you. I'm glad I got something done, I only even heard about this Short Story thing a few days ago and initially decided not to try for this month. But I could not resist! Hopefully I can spend a bit more time on next months entry!

  @cully_c I read it and I commented on it, but it did that blogger thing of eating my comment. Sigh. Trying again!

  Lol! It worked that time @ra3rei. I am glad you enjoyed it! Perhaps there will be more, I'll have to see if Dalton is interested in a sequel I'm kind of glad you didn't 'get it' till the end, that's what I was hoping for, I actually started the story from the last two lines. They were the first thing I was sure of, how it would end, everything else is filler LOL
  
  Guess I should add to say; @Carewren123 could you add mine to the front page list

  Hello!
  
  I've been lurking around the forums for a while and I thought I'd have a crack at SimLit. I hope this isn't too late?

  Always glad for new faces @Leoin202 And not too late at all! You still have until the 1st of December in one time zone or another. And you were right, yours is a very dark story - but I like that from time to time since I mainly write the light happy stuff.
  
  Our last entries, wow. All of them have been stellar and from new faces! Yay.

  You know... light happy stuff about baby death getting her first experience reaping, and haunted houses, and having been abandoned in space as a child for about 5 years... THAT kind of light, happy stuff!

  What you don't find that light and happy? Weird? LOL
  
  I guess it's all in the perspective. Just wait till we get vampires again and I tell you all about Sera! I almost used her this month for the challenge but I really want better vampire fangs than the mod that makes them look painted on.

  I just wanted to pop into this thread and say that this is an awesome idea, and I really enjoyed writing my little story this weekend. It was my first time doing a Sims 4 story with actual Sims, so that was really cool, and it was something lighter than my main story, and it's something that people who might not be into my main story can read and hopefully like and comment on.
  
  Thank you very much for this idea and this thread and for keeping this thing going. Definitely looking forward to next month.

  Thank you all. Just updated the entry list on the front page. If everyone who submitted a story this month could double check that theirs has been added that would be great. With that said you still have a full day to get entries in if anyone is still working on theirs.
  
  I've got another super busy day tomorrow, but I'll still check for last minutes entries tomorrow night (my time: Central US).

  @Pegasus143 is right the deadline is always midnight central time. I'll probably add that to the front page now that I've thought about it. A little over an hour left to go. Will anyone else make a surprise last minute entry?

  November 2015 Entries

  
  November's Theme: Lost
  
  All stories with have one word that binds them together: "lost". Do with it what you may. Use any meaning (literal or metaphorical). A character can be "lost" or and object or whatever. Was it lost and later found? Lost forever? You imagination is the only limit... along with those pesky word and picture limits.
  
  No special rules this time around. The regular 500-1500 word and 1-12 picture limit are in place for November.
