Love the synopsis and the bios Thank you! This story is a little emotional for me because it is loosely based on my life growing up, names, of course, have been changed and some things have been substituted such as Sienna's love for music and my love for writing, of course my father wasn't a musician, but my mother was an alcoholic, I didn't want to map it out exactly in case someone related to me accidental stumbled upon it and got offended or upset, though the emotions portrayed by Sienna are that of my own! Covering my own rear I suppose.

I know what you are saying,my Sims2 story Zero,is also about my life, but many characters play that one roll! I am thinking of doing a redux of it on Sims3,seeing that my PC blowing up! stopped the story in its tracks! ~ I am following this already & can not wait for more to be reveled! ~ A great start!

Aw man, this made me so sad. Darla's issues are tearing everyone apart, and she doesn't see it. It's such an unhealthy environment for Sienna. Great job in portraying everyone's feelings and their dysfunctional relationship.

Karima - I would love to read it, I am always intrigued by life stories!
Valpre - One in that state of mind never sees the pain that they cause others, they only think of themselves and how they can make their life better. I agree it is very unhealthy for Sienna, it wasn't hard to portray the feelings when you have felt them before as well as the dysfunction! Hope you are enjoying it so far!

I enjoy your writing, but this story makes me sad when I think of what you went through, and I think it's terribly brave of you to share it with all of us; but I imagine it's a cathartic experience too, to be able to write about it, and see the situation from so many point of views.

No need to be sad I came out of it with a good head on my shoulders, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Though it has been twelve years since i left home it still haunts me and writing is the best therapy to me, and like I said it's loosely based on my life growing up, though the feelings and certain situations portrayed are personal, I added in a few things to make it more interesting lol, like the jailbird father, which mine wasn't.

I can relate - my mother is actually the Anti-Christ, and I've wanted to write that into a million stories, but I was always afraid someone would recognise her, and I'd have to answer for it! Lol! I agree - I think a rough life gives us writers plenty of fodder, along with the ability to clevery disguise our subjects. Here's to surviving & thriving! the intro was just beautiful. You could feel her love of music - how much her soul belongs to it. Very well written! WoW! I never expected them to have that kind of life, after seeing her play that beautiful piano! Seeing this makes that moment so much more special when I look back on it now! I see she got her father's love of music - how sad that they both have to contend with Darla. I can understand why they both hide in the music! I know I'm not supposed to like Darla, but that tangerini looks really good! Think she'd make me one? Lol!
About that notebook she wrote in...I tried to download one from MTS, but it wouldn't work with LN. Is that the same one?

And our lives are always disguised behind closed doors. We only let people see what we want them too!
And it is easy to get lost into something when your life isn't great, its easier to just escape to another place rather than deal with hardships!

I just love the story so far only about 2 chapters in, the chapters are long and with kids running around it is hard to try and read anything that is long, but i will get caught up with it ASAP!

Eek already a chapter 2 and I haven't gotten to read the first one yet. I will make it on my list of things to do. I have been studying for the tests so I am sure my reads have been built up on people who have updated.
