Hey Storytellers
Remember that
Story of the Month Club poll we ran at the end of last year? Well, I have some news for you. Our first "winner", the fabulous
@CathyTea, is now featured in a blog on TheSims.com on Wednesday, February 11. I do hope you will take some time to
check it out here.
And, look out for a new Story of the Month Club poll which we will be launching in early March. Start thinking about what stories you would like to nominate.

Whatever...that's really good!
Also--and this is the coolest part to me--we're a really open, friendly, supportive creative community! We love to hear from and talk with SimLit readers and writers. So consider yourself at home!
We've got a big old crazy mashup event coming up all through March called S-GAS (SIMposium for Game-Aware-Sims) and you can find us talking about it here and on our blogs. Registration is now open, and we'd love to have Sims story lovers take part!
Cheers!

I'm happy to report Tribe Wahine: An Amazon Story, winner of the Spring Story Challenge of 2015 is still going strong with over 230,000 views! I couldn't have done it without the advertisement of EA, but am wondering why it's been cut from this thread. Hm...glitch?
I am wondering what ever happened to Story of the Month! I keep hoping it will come back, but it doesn't. I know some really wonderful stories (not just my own ) weren't even around the first couple of rounds of this. I think it would be really awesome for it to come back!
I know because Dust to Dust should win next! Ha! They abandoned it...not sure why. It really helped sim lit!
I think that yours was on a separate thread, but it's no longer pinned, which is strange. It might have even said Spring Challenge in the title but I dunno
I would love for this to start up again. So many great stories on here!
That would make sense!!!
It would be kind of cool if the game didn't say things like "You can't do that when you're pregnant" after surprise alien abduction pregnancies. And the 'uncomfortable' shouldn't be a dummy, but maybe a question mark. That makes it more of a surprise.
I'm trapped between adding this alien hybrid baby to my household (brother and sister; what will the neighbours and Alan's two girlfriends say?!) and giving it away to just keep life easy... Maybe I can just keep it for a while and have the baby agency take it away.
Then again, I do need those family achievements and aspirations; this is as good a way as any to start on them...
Oh Alan, you sure are getting fat. I'm tempted to watch him have the alien-hybrid baby at work, just for the sheer joy of seeing what happens. I'm running out of skills to level up, Dine Out's coming, and it's time to just go nuts and find out all about babies.
Thanks, @abenaki1972 ! There are so many wonderful stories and writers here! I encourage you to stop by Writers' Lounge and get to know a few!

Thank you! This was nearly three years ago! LOL! @pammiechick was the second story of the month... and then the whole thing sort of disappeared! I'd love for the SimGurus to resurrect it ( @SimGuruDrake ) because it was so fun and both times it happened, it drew so many new Simmers to writing. It was really fun!
Also... it provided good, free content for the Sims Blog!

I remember reading about your Amazon Challenge from the Finnish side of the forums around that time! I'd just taken up Sims 4 back then and was very eager to go and take a look at the whole thing. Also, t'was one of the first longer stories I've read in English, and my first contact to the SimLit writer community! So, this is bringing back memories...
And yes, I am fairly late, but you still deserve the praise
The sad part is that we all went our separate ways when the website was disbanded. I remember a few of their Usernames they use to use.
TinkerToy, HarleyHoney, Llltut, Bnasty, SharkAttack, Mimi, UberWarren, Shelby, Junside, MechaGorcha, DreamGod, LittleLady, GothBabe, PuckGoodfellow, Eaze, Footticklinglover
Are just a few of the names I remember to this day, I saved at least one of their style's on my Facebook page.
I miss the silliness of the postings we use to do just to get a emoji smile out of each other.
Since I have finially was able to buy a pc and The Sims 4 base game. I have been slowly making their Sims as close as I can to the contrast of their moba's avi.
At the moment I have been having a blast watching Lily Uber. One of my usernames was UberLily, I use to get bored of the names back then. but when I get a better handle at this game and the fuctions. I will be Posting MY MobaMingle Challange. Could You handle just a base game challange?
