@MadameLee good luck with this! I’m currently on Gen 3 of 7 of my Moonchild reboot which is I think about 40 posts in, it’s a lot of fun but I’d advise lots of snacks
and i'm doing it *while* writing a blog post about a topic close to my heart about disabilities+life-sim genre
@CathyTea to answer your question from my Blogpost you read today and commented on - I don't know what to think about the Life By You because I'm kind of worried about the repeitve of some careers we can follow our "humans" to work in. Because people got tired pretty quicky of all 3 careers (before they became buggy)-in Sims 4: Go to Work. But on the other hand I could potentially create some stories I can't create really in Sims 4.
If it wasn't for the fact I didn't want to get into too much either disability jargon (outside of the one mention of "Curb-cut" effect) or into literature tropes-I would have mentioned "medical vs. social model of disabilty" or mention the other catergory of disabled characters who aren't temporary disabled.
I might write new blog posts about medical vs. social models of disability and also of Disabled characters tropes.
Been a crazy week, and I keep stopping to build instead of play, but I finally got another chapter of Box of Chocolates finished and up. 2.46 The Meaning of Family.
A good way to describe my real life at the moment is "everything, everywhere all at once". However, I have managed to squeeze out a chapter of Sim 66 amidst all the chaos. Joanna gets to grips with student life...both academically and socially in chapter 192: College Girl.
thats not sims thats life. sorry friend . lol that describes my life rght now. everything everwhere all at once this last week i had 2 therapy sessionsions back to back.
Aurora finally opens her letter from Gunther which explains much more than she anticipated. Her children’s fates are outlined beyond her expectations and the future of Sunset Valley is placed firmly in their hands.
This is definitely the chapter that I worked the hardest on and am most proud of. From flashbacks of Victor, Samuel and Gretle Goth to present day revelations about the future of the Evergreen legacy, this one paves the way for the end of Gen 1 and start of Gen 2 🌲
Wyrd Girls from @luciusstorm is another favorite. He does a wonderful occult based story, with some familiar faces. Like Fier Legacy they aren’t novel length but they are fantastic fun.
Late response, but thank you @DaniRose2143 for the call out. FYI, the latest chapters of Wyrd Girls aren't available on the forums, since they deal with more mature topics and language. So, out of an abundance of caution and respect for the forum rules, I don't post links for reasons DaniRose mentions. If anyone is interested, feel free to reach out via DM and I'll point you in the right direction.

Aurora battles with her emotions as it becomes clear she can no longer avoid Gunther's last words.
