So... it's Q&A Monday, and I'm interested - how long have you guys been writing simlit? I've been going nearly a year now
I've been turning my Sim's lives into dramatic stories for entertainment for years, since at least Sims 2, but it was always spoken stories, never written. My first official Simlit story for public consumption went like April 25, 2016.
Good morning (or happy timezones)! I have a new chapter up today. The neighborhood club finally arrives in Forgotten Hollow to harvest garlic to help ward off those pesky vampires who insist on breaking into Sims' homes to drink their plasma without permission. Shhh! No one tell them they could just order garlic seeds on the internet.
So... it's Q&A Monday, and I'm interested - how long have you guys been writing simlit? I've been going nearly a year now
I started writing like days after TS4 came out lol, so like 2.5 years?
i started writing when the lounge started. i rember because if you look somewhere in the front pages is me saying i guess if i'm going to co found a writers lounge i actually need to write something. it was whatever i wrote before the benders .
I've loved reading all your answers! Thank you so much! I've been looking up to you guys the whole time I've been here, so it's great to know more about what got you started
@friendsfan367 I had a dream about you lol. Well, not about you, but you were in it. Of course I have no idea what you look like lol. Me, you, @aroseinbloom and @Meggles were at an airport. We weren't together, but we just all happened to be there. I didn't know who you were, but you knew me of course. You started a conversation with me and I thought you were just a chatty lady at the airport lol. But then you started talking about things strangers wouldn't know and I was like waaaaait a minute. Who are you?! LOL, you were like "I'm friendsfan!" I stood there looking at you and I couldn't believe it. Then I shouted your real name and gave you a bear hug (this person who was supposed to be you was so short lol). Then you laughed at me because you were enjoying trolling me in "real" life. Then I called Meg and Rosey over and introduced you. The end.

I worked until 1:30am counting things at work...off today, so I'm getting brunch with my cousin, then we're seeing Beauty and the Beast.
What's your day look like??
This whole entire week is going to be filled with zero plans, aside from much overdue housework. I quit my desk job and soon I will be starting a new one next Monday! So I am taking this time to relax and just recharge. Missed you here Rose!

School, studying, potentially doing some work for other classes since I'm going to be missing Thursday and Friday. I might do some writing as well if I have time.
I'm not saying that I want Clara from Ashes to Ashes as she is right now (middle-aged and toned-down and fatter) to treat me like the petulant woman-child I am and then bang me, but please?
Bre from @ra3rei 's Ghost of a Chance is my close, close runner-up. I love her big nose and full figure and the shots of her in lingerie in the wedding chapter. Julia is so lucky!
Both of them have very attractive personalities too. It's hard to pick a favorite between Clara's brash and emotional reactions, and Bre's...daringness? She always feels like the stronger counterpart to Julia (who I guess is a little too close to reality for me ).
Lol - Bre is a bit more edgy that the much more prosaic Julia. She is so much fun to dress! She and Julia do match well, I think. And kind of funny that you crush her and Clara. Both are descendants of Jade! I wonder how much Clara still has in common with Jade that far down the line.
Check out Raerei's Fortress for Builds, Short Stories, and maybe some longer stuff.

Aside from the usual school work and a test on Friday, today starts a week of celebrations for my school's history and accomplishments. There's going to be lots of fun events, including a concert series on Friday. I'm hoping to participate in the events.

A little over 2 years now. I used to do it more frequently but eh, life.
I had to pause for a sec. Is that really you @aroseinbloom ???
Long time no posting, I see.
Anyways, I'm not up to much today. Just going to do some portfolio work, a little writing and a TV binge later on.
How have you been?
It's me, it's me! @sunnyshay.
Sounds like a nice day.
I've been well. My crazy work hours prevent me from having energy to engage these days, but I'm trying to fight against it a little.
Also, I've been playing the heck out of Overwatch.
Miss you!
