Doing great. Today was a napping sort of day. But also have been working late the past 3 days to finish a project and it's done finally so i rewarded myself with a nap.
@BlackUndecimber Your story sounds really interesting! I've checked out the prologue and subscribed for updates Very interested in the back story and what happens next!
I've just been playing my game, and I had a birthday. One of my children aged up to teen, and got eye wrinkles Anyone know if there's a way to prevent this? Otherwise I have to have cas.fulleditmode on to remove them, and sometimes the loading screens take a bit too long if I forget to turn the cheat on and have to enter and exit and reenter cas.

That's interesting. I know the devs turned off the other wrinkle details from showing up randomly on teens so maybe you should report it as a bug (since it's technically theirs now)
My only other thought is if it's linked to child "skin details" like Kijiko's eyelashes or skin overlays that are in the wrinkle categories not being linked to the teen-elder versions so they grab what they can.
That's my plan for the weekend too. I'm finally getting close to catching up with my gameplay.
By "writing myself into a corner" I mean "I did this writing thing and now I have no idea where to go from here" because what can I do after teasing a storyline that I can't actually figure out how to create in game?

i plan to catch up my writing and gameplay too. toddlers can't climb ladders. i have to catch up so the kids grow up. i might have bunk bed fever. so excited.

If it's just a teaser that doesn't definitely say something is going to happen, you could always twist it round to get something easier to do. If the teaser doesn't say anything definite, there's nothing to prevent you taking a different direction.

Exactly. Don't overexert yourself trying to figure out how to do something that has you stumped. Perhaps save that particular storyline for another time, maybe they're not ready or got cold feet, but make it a goal later on. Or if you're trying to tell a story that's off camera, you could try converting existing locations into something to tell a story with. There are several hidden locations within the base game that you can use or you can find an empty lot and decorate it to your needs. Or perhaps try searching the galley for something that might fit your storyline or use it to come up with your own ideas.
I found some yet unused Vee is for Vortex Screenshots I made in 2019 lol. The last chapter I published is from 2017. Honestly thinking about getting back to it now. Writing this chapter should be funny since I have no idea what actually happened in my game in 2019 so I just kind of have to wing it from the pictures.
I already made a new banner though, I'm really excited haha.
I’m glad there’s a spot to chat about all things writing as my main reason for joining this forum was to get back into reading and writing SimLit. It’ll be good to get back to reading people’s stories again :) I hope everyone is doing well with their writing. I haven’t written in so long I’m a little rusty though! My past stories were quite dark in places so I might make my next project a little more light hearted.

I'm getting down to finally writing chapter 4.4 of Swanson chapter (its a bit heavy-handed on a certain 1 or 2 themes)

just write then if you have to edit the teaser.
