Quick question: How do you guys come up with titles for your stories? I love writing so I'd like to try this out but I'm stuck on a title..
i actually didn't. people started calling it the benders and it stuck.
Its a good name. XD
thats not even the ironic part. pegasus from the writers lounge was the one who started calling it the benders and because i read part of one sentence she typed when the lounge started and part of another her name went from pegasus to mackie. so i told her one day she named the benders and i named her. mackie also stuck.lol

That's a good idea, I'm ashamed to say I haven't thought of that yet xD
Ahh don't be ashamed. I'm actually pretty terrible at coming up with titles but this one worked for me.

how did you come up with friends and foes?
Friends of Foes I don't know. I think it's because of the concept of someone becoming best friends with their enemy.

Thank you for this very helpful guide.
I'm about to start a story that I've had in my mind for a while.
What are we allowed to show in this forum ?
If I have a love story with a love scene, I'm I allowed to show nudity or explicit sex ?
Since we have readers of all ages here, the answer is no. I would recommend creating a blog for your story where you will be less limited. Then you can start a thread dedicated to your story here on the forums and put a link to your blog there.

You can always just link to your blog, like @Maladi777 said. As for what you can post on this site, I think the general rule is to keep things PG. Another helpful thing is to look at what other simmers have posted here. If you need any help, you can ask here or head to the Writer's Lounge.
Glad it was helpful! Back when I made the guide people often came to writer's lounge and asked the same questions. Some people were discouraged because they felt like they were doing it "wrong", which can't really happen, but I realized they had a need for guidance and insights from more experienced writers that's how this guide happened! I can only hope that many beginners read it and feel a little less lost
New SimLit writer here! (Okay, not really really new....I've been writing stories since the very first Sims! Just new to the forums).
I've started a soap opera and am working on getting it ready to share! My goal is to have it ready when I'm finally a full member!
Thanks for the helpful information located in this thread!!

ps. I seem to use a great number of exclamation points! Just my excitement to be here I guess!!
Welcome to the forums, Mama! I love your excitement! Feel free to swing by the Writers' Lounge when you want to share links to your stories and chat with others!
Hey there! I'm new to Simlit, along with the forums! I am planning on writing a basic legacy challenge based story, and am currently writing the first chapter! I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask, but how would i make a family tree? (I apologize if this isn't the correct forum to ask :| ) -Missinsanity

One way to do so is Plum Tree app made specifically for sims. Some simmers also use Family Echo. Pick what suits your needs best. Welcome to the large family of simlit writers and have fun writing your own story.
