Keeping Busy February 5, 2009

Right, so I burned out a bit. I want to keep the game and this story interesting for me and for that to happen, I need to take a little break from this blog. Nothing extravagant, just a week or two of not worrying about it will be plenty. After that, updates! Lots of them!

In the meantime, I started a challenge and am having heaps of fun reporting about it on LJ. You can read about the Million Dollar Challenge by yours truly here: http://simscribe.livejournal.com/791.html

I’ll probably be doing that for a while, and some small projects I’ve been meaning to do for ages. I can probably squeeze in some story updates, but no promises.

Thanks for reading.

January 21, 2009

My apologies for the lack of updates lately. I’ve been in the hospital (and away from my computer) for quite a while, so I haven’t been able to work on anything new lately. I’m all better now, so as soon as I catch up with everything I’ll be ready to continue making stories. I hope you understand and stick with me a little longer.

Thank you for your patience.

Happy Holidays! December 29, 2008

I wanted to make a Christmas/Chanukah/Yule/non-dominational gift for my readers and it took a bit longer than expected, but here it is; a slightly belated midwinter just-for-fun gift to thank you all for sticking with my little blog. Thank you for your kind comments (and silent lurking)! I would’ve given up ages ago if it wasn’t for you guys!

Episode 7: Area 52 December 13, 2008

New Sims up for download December 11, 2008

I’ve added some Sims I used for a contest to the Downloads section. They’re on page two. I put a lot of effort into them so it would be a shame to let them go to waste. I hope someone finds a use for them!

As for the story, the next episode requires a shitload of sets, cc and sims, as well as loads of coordinated kermitflailing, but it’s being made. Real life issues allowing it will be up later this week. I know it’s been slow lately, but rest assured, I’m working on it!

Ruining a community in 5 easy steps December 4, 2008

This has move to sim_wank, where it’s slightly more relevant. All the screenshots, drama and facts about the Insim drama summarized here: http://community.livejournal.com/sim_wank/8961.html

The fandom_wank article (to which I contributed a little and is slightly longer) is here: http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/1188549.html#cutid1

Episode 6: The Shape of a Story December 2, 2008

I’m experimenting with a third party program to make the pictures, so if they look a little weird and “thin”, that’s why. I’ll figure out how to do it properly soon enough, promise.

Insim drama: now with extra cheese! November 28, 2008

I’m sorry I haven’t posted a new episode in a while, but if you haven’t heard (although I would be terribly surprised if you hadn’t), Insim is going through a bit of a rough patch right now, what with being sold to the highest bidder without the members or even the staff knowing and Uncle Walt pissing everyone off something fierce. It’s mighty fine drama and all my sims time is going into keeping up with the details (and the lulz). But apparently the Insim servers went splode (you can probably thank Pescado for that). Delicious drama it is, and mighty angry I am. So until it all dies down a bit, I’ll be spending my time at the Phorum, and Insim, if it ever comes back.

Those of you who own sites, servers and domains, please consider taking in some of the Insim refugees who pulled their creations when shit hit the fan and are now looking for a new place to host their things.

Episode 5: Elusive Air November 24, 2008

Custom Content page updated! November 21, 2008

Well, I’ve finally got around to adding the custom content I used in the stories and you can find it here. If you’re looking for the custom content used in the Elemental Fury storyline, they’re on page two (easy to miss). As always, if you notice that something you recognise is not on this list, use the contact form to let me know whom to credit!

The next chapter in Elemental Fury will be up this weekend (Monday at the latest) as well as the necessary additions to the Cast page. Updates may slow down a bit as I’ve got real life matters to attend to, but they will continue at an acceptable rate (at least I hope it’s acceptable).

Thank you for reading!
