NotJustaBookSims

So I think it’s safe to say that it’s been… one of the longest breaks I’ve taken from the blog since I started this whole Sims thing. I swear I blinked and then it was October – so many things have happened, it’s mad. (more…)

Download | Tiramisu Cardigan

Hi guuuuuys! Download time again. Today I bring you a cute, knitted cardigan, inspired by the very best website for knitting patterns, Petite Knit. I knitted this balloon cardigan of theirs myself and I’m obsessed. It’s made of soft merino, mohair and silk. I knitted it in the same off-white as you can see on the website, but since this is Sims 3, it can have all the colours of the rainbow. So let’s have Read more…

Official Hiatus

Hi guys! I wanted to drop in for a spell to make this unofficial semi-hiatus thing an official, proper hiatus. Things have been hectic in my life for a loooong time and I think now is the time to take a step back and take a proper break so I don’t sit around, worrying that I’m not getting anything done with this whole Sims thing. Even if it’s not necessary, I do want to explain Read more…

Download | Cinnamon Blouse

Hi guys!

I thought it was about time I posted another CC thang, so here’s a blouse I call cinnamon because… because frankly it was the first spice that popped into my mind while naming the file. Don’t look at me. This is a really simple blouse, but it has four colour channels which I hope will spark some interesting ideas for styling. 😊 (more…)

Heartwood

Heartwood | Reflections

Hi guys!

Isn’t it just a fact that while us writers like to write, we sort of… like talking about writing even more? And especially our own writing. At least it’s true for me, which is why even as I start a new story, I’m rubbing lil hands thinking of the time when I can do reflections because it’s my excuse to blab about my own writing for a bit. So, that’s what this post is. I like to reflect on a story after I’m done – how the story evolved over time, what I liked, and what I’m not as happy with. I like to do this for me, because it’s my chance to think back and reflect, and I like to think maybe others will enjoy seeing how a writing process can look. I know a lot more writers who plan at least something in advance, whereas I like to start writing and figure things out along the way and editing a lot. It’s a mess, but it’s my mess, so let’s take a look at the messy process that resulted in Heartwood.
