    Junior will have a reason to visit...to have someone do his laundry for him. Unless....
    ...his girlfriend does it for him.
    Wait....what?? Junior has a girlfriend?

    @simscognito @0:27 of the video in the 4 video clips collage you see on the bottom right-hand side a toddler playing with a washtub. In the next set of video clips (@0:28) the 8 videos clips the top 3rd one has a woman actually hand washing clothes in the washtub. @0:32 there's a video clip of a man hand washing a cucumber in the washtub.

    OMG this is Such a cool trailer!!!! And those bathtubs are cute!

    they're called washtubs, not bathtubs, because you don't bath in them..

    Yes I meant washtubs! I think my brain flew away with the trailer! :D

    I'll probably wait and see how Laundry is created. I want to know if it's only created when you have a washtub or machine in the house. I'd love for that to be the truth or my sims would have sooo much laundry!!!

    I'm not sure if they've said to be honest. I assume that it'll be similar to S3 where it's only there if you have those items on the lot.

    @Bugsie2016 yes, I remember in the sims 3 that happening. I'd always find stacks of laundry everywhere! :D

    I hope so!! It would be a pain to do laundry when I don't want to. (If i'm honest I don't even do my own irl. I'm probably banned after my fails at working appliances! :lol: )

    Yeah, plus if your sim can't afford the items, then what? Oh, well, it's possible that's what the washtubs are for...the super poor sims who have laundry surrounding them. :D

    washtubs->historical challenge, rags-to-riches challenge, stay-at-home parent, or in my case "Cinderella" characters (well not just washtubs but in move fancy places-like the Grants, the Palaces (um..which would you think the Enrichment castle would have-washtub or washing machine? I guess if they're evil..I'm going to assume washtub) the washing machines-unless I guess the washtubs as punishments of sorts-I mean for the Cinderella characters.

    Ooh! Now I can't sleep! This is going to be a very fun chapter! :D

    @MadameLee oh right, silly me. :D Don't you have a Snow White character in the Swanson legacy? I thought you did, anyway, I didn't know Carly was in the Cinderella section. I suppose it makes sense, since she was abused like Cinderella, although not in exactly the same way.

    Because Junior is a spare, there won't be much details about it. The focus is Jubilee, but Hope and Junior will still make small appearances.

    Focus needs to be the "challenge". Especially since i am doing a chapter equals a day in their sim life.

    This isn't a spoiler so can publicize it without tags.... Jubilee's big happy family aspiration is half done. Next few chapters deal a lot with Angel and Noelle to move along her aspiration even further.

    @simscognito No I don't have any snow white characters- they're more Cinderella-like characters (Molly/Carly/America/Selene-espically the last one which has the most Cinderellay plotline with ball and everything.


    Question Do you guys gets inspired to included or reference songs/books/movies that you listened to/read/watched in your SimLit?

    While I get inspired by things I generally don't reference them directly in my writing. I prefer to keep my stories somewhat separated from the real world.

    Have you considered doing a mini spinoff to give fans a larger view of the spares lives? Actually that could be a cute thing to do at the very end...The Untold Stories of Simself Spares! Sounds a bit series of unfortunate events though...

    Music is a huge inspiration to me! Like you, I use song lyrics in some of my chapters of Pine Point because...
    The main character Miranda uses music lyrics as a way to keep herself tied to reality while she is isolated

    Otherwise, I've referenced a few songs in other stories' chapters either here on the forums or in the title of the chapter.
