Hello!

[nygirl]

Hi I am NyGirl and I am a 28 year old mom from NY, (state not city, I always feel I have to clarify that ) I don't have a amazing exciting and interesting life to the average person, but to me it is. I am a stay at home mom, and I absolutely love my Sims!

While I may not be an amazing writer, with perfect grammar or spelling, it is something I enjoy immensely and I think I manage well, I have been writing for over twenty years now, started as a young kid and always have had a knack for it. While I only write as a hobby, I would like to someday write and publish at least one book. I just recently starting using the Sims 3 as a writing outlet after reading some impressive stories it inspired me to give it a go.

I am currently working on my fourth story made with the Sims 3, my first being posted on TSR, "Pieces of Me", my second on the Sims 3 site, "After Dark", The third was a disappointed cancellation due to not backing up my files and having to re-install, I blame the holidays for that, and my current one "Where The Wildflowers Grow"

Now that I realized I almost typed a book here alone, I won't bore you with any further details at the moment. I am looking forward to reading some great stories, and sharing mine with you. And a big thank you to Valpre for letting me know about this site, it will be nice to connect and meet with other great writers!

Hiya!! Welcome to the forum!! You're going to really like it here!

Welcome !!!
You don't have to be the best at grammar and spelling around here! We are all learning and helping each other along the way! I'm Qui (key).

Qui's right - we're not grammar nazis here, and there's plenty of folks who will proofread for you if you feel you want that option.

Welcome! I'm Jillyson, a mod, and I hope you feel right at home here. I can't wait to see your stories posted and tuck into them!

It's also a fun place to just hang and chat, work thru a writer's block, rant, vent, share, and have fun!

The Coffee House is our chat area - also where we keep some fun word games. We have tons of stories, both completed and in progress in our story section, and plenty of game help, pointers, cc, and other stuff for both sims 2 and 3 in our links sections.

Just give a yell if you need help navigating - anyone at all will be glad to help, either in a post or a pm. Feel free to post in any thread - no one cares if it's a year old or a day old here.

Have fun & I hope to see you around!

[nygirl]

Thank you so much for your warm welcomes! I can't wait to start reading!

WE also have a DD's RR (round robin!) Sims 3 style that we need more people for, if anyone is interested!?
