    @friendsfan367 thanks a lot! Any tips for me? haha :)

    sometimes i let my chracters tell the story not just the writing but i just watch them see what they do and write it down once i watched a chracter for 52 real hours cause i wanted him to pick his mate. it sounds nuts but we both got what we wanted he got a relationship he was comfortable with i got a 3 part story arc.

    @friendsfan367 Oh jesus, that does sound interesting, but I guess for me it will be very hard to do something like that, because I actually have to use The Sims on my cousin's computer, which is why I think story-driven will be the way for me, but thanks for the example!

    @BlackUndecimber I hope you come back! There's never too much to read <3 And yeah, mine will be all about that family drama, I hope I do it justice!

    Chapter Nine of my story "Dark Tales of Miss Hale" is now out on my wordpress!! We're getting deeper into the story and closer to the send of the first 'arc' in her story. There are still plenty of more chapters to do and I look forward to sharing it with you all! (Please remember, this is an r18 story, so please consider this before reading) I'm so happy I've found ways to directly link to chapters too! I'm so miffed that a generated name is banned!

    I recommend this story highly. I've been reading it from the beginning. The subject matter is very dark and sad. The characters are richly drawn. The writing develops into something so alive and honest-feeling. During the last few chapters, I've forgotten it was fiction and felt I was reading one of those true-life blogs from someone who has had a rough life.

    well it wouldn't have taken that long but he was afraid to tell me his secret. so it took 52 hours. to get it out of him. :)

    and when he told me the truth i wasn't shocked. what his mom did in her part of the story this time actually shocked me more.

    Hey everyone. I wanted to stop by and let those storytellers that use cc for sims 4 that I made some possibly useful cc for stories (if you have toddlers). Here's the print screen pics I have from S4S. :)

    as much as i wanted to be in cogs circle i abandoned the idea cause now to keep my sims 3 packs in game i have to have each indviual pack checked with a checkmark so it shows in my game. i wasn't bothered by it til this morning .because i recently went binge pack shopping . bought a whole bunch at once its discouraging that i can't use them without the silly check marks.


    you know it must be really bugging me cause i can't count how many times i started over with the benders and i;m still writing that.

    Thanks a lot <3

    I've actually already started working on my story, it's going to be very story-driven (I think that's how you say it here), can't wait to share with you guys.

    Hiya, nice to meet you. I'm a lapsed writer trying to get back to writing simlit. Looking forward to your story! I especially love story driven simlit.

    lapsed writer?

    FF - probably means something like you used to write regularly and than stopped writing for awhile.

    Actually undecember it was a vampire story right? I'm pretty sure used to read it and it was one of the first I read. :)

    On a side note. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for short challenges. I'm going to have two spares soon, one of which I'm planning to do the room challenge with. But I'm not sure what challenge to do with the other.

    Haha nah, no vampires in my story... though it was fantasy, so easy mistake to make :)

    As for challenges, I really enjoy the stories based on challenges you made yourself, like the Seven Sins story. If you can't find a suitable one, maybe make a simple one yourself? I know, easier said than done, but I like how fresh the ideas feel when they're a newly made challenge.
