The Stories and Legacies Index is now a year old! It was a year ago today that I first opened the Stories and Legacies Index, back on its original thread, which was closed on November 17th, 2015 when room for expansion became a pressing need, and its current thread has been its home since then! Back in September 2015, around only 25 were sites submitted to the index; now, a year later, there are over 300 sites listed! Thank you so much to all the amazing SimLit authors and YouTube Let's Players out there creating amazing Sim stories, that take the time to drop by and submit their works.
