    With 3 legacies at generation 3 and one at 2, I'm finding myself struggling not to be repetitive. I've even thought about ending the stories early.
    But one other idea I had was changing the age span settings to make the generations shorter. Say, 5 months per genration instead of 7. That way I'd finish sooner. I just don't know if I should make that kind of change int he middle of an ongoing story.

    I decided to call it "Cinder" Generation. Can anyone tell what's going on in the banner?

    Hey everyone. How are you all doing?

    I'm good. Almost time to go to sleep. But, good news is I made another edit I'm proud of. Not sure if I should keep posting them here though. I did post it in my BL thread if you want to see it. :)

    No. It's been around at least since Seasons.

    Haha. I rolled up a cat character for @Shadami's Simselves on an Adventure... a Sims 4 DND game. :) The pretty kitty is Cadence Crescent Moon. I spent a really long time looking for all the CC. I might... write a story about her on my own too. We'll see. ;)

    How are you @InfraGreen? What are you up to lately in the SimLit world. I'm so far behind with "can't-look-away-it's-a-train-wreck." :D No seriously, I am hoping to catch up on some reading over the long weekend. I miss Thu.

    She does look a bit like that. Hmm... I wonder if the fur skin creator was thinking along those lines.

    A sims game really makes it once you can get loads of furry content it seems. I remember the (vaguely disturbing) slider hacks and tutorials to make actual wolf or panther-faced sims in TS3, complete with skins. 2013 was a creative and lawless time.

    I've been on a simlit hiatus and entirely because my weekends have just been packed. Most of it is my own doing of concerts and mini-vacations (to go to more concerts) and very little actual tragedy (but Bud smiles down on us always :heart:).

    I think of David Bowie! Or like exactly one song.

    She looks like she's triyng to cover her ears. Soeone's listening to loud music? Or teasing her? Though the other kid seems to be ignoring her.

    not teasing her. the other sim is doing something nice w/ her/for her?. (she can't red or right) and she's had enough for one night.

    Not a story-related post on my blog per se, and I felt really weird (even guilty) about posting it...

    So she's understandably frustrated. That looks like a very interesting scene.

    @SimTresa I usually make a different set of screenshot for both my scored legacy save and the screenshot save which I did parallel. This way I'm okay with being repetitive on game, but adding up new plot without affecting my scored legacy save, Also I could change settings so I could turn on the lighting settings on in my screenshot saves since my laptop is baked when I play with it on. This allow me to capture a scene with high quality without having to worry about my games crashing. There's also other legacy spin off which you could try by adding new challenge into the repetitive legacy play.
    I also write non sims stuff on Wattpad

    @SimTresa well this chapter and the second chapter after 4 chapters-(I'm going to put Cinder's next chapter as 6.5 instead of the original 6.2) that Sara Wendy (the said cousin) is "correcting" Selene like a school teacher. Here's an example of it from today's chapter
