Share why you scrapped this specific thing

Tag five friends, and watch the fun play out!

To be honest, I haven’t scrapped many things in my creative journey. True, I did start a sims 2 Legacy challenge over 15x times, but I’ll count that as one thing. On the last attempt, I did manage to reach my self-set goal of birthing generation 5, so there’s that. No pictures of the versions I scrapped sadly, because they were on my, RIP, laptop. But the founder was always the same little lady. If you want to read the last attempt (lots of spelling mistakes), it’s here: http://steelelegacy.blogspot.com/p/the-matthews-legacy-ind.html (Link also reveals it was the “Steele” Legacy before I changed it to “Matthews”) That’s about it. Everything else is just on-hold-ish. I have another vamp story, inspired by Queen of the Damned, and it has a queen of vampires. LOL, with 4 very special companions/partners/protectors/eventual-lovers/... there are more “slashes” to describe the 4, but I’ll stop there. However the story’s in bits and pieces and single scenarios; don’t know if it’ll ever be a full blown story. Not saying never, just definitely not in the near future.

^^ This is another original story of mine called “Lady of the House”. The panel is kinda a sneak-peek, but who knows, I might change it... A few of my friends have been waiting for this story for over 7 years now. One of them asked me to post the prologue because she was nosy and I did. That was on the 15th of july 2013 (YIKES, I know), but the story wasn’t finished and I was posting updates for “Tamed” back then, so yeah... I got behind. Writer’s block hit me hard and it still hasn’t fully lifted. ------------ To try and get back into shooting scenes for the story, get a feel for it again, I started to simmify a book that I really liked. In this case it went a bit easier, because I didn’t have to write and shoot at the same time. The story’s already there, so I can get really creative with the editing etc. I started making deco sims for it last year, which I still have to use, bugger! Below is an unedited picture of my cast hinting me to hurry the F*ck up because they’re getting stiff from staying posed too long. XD I’ll release behind the scenes/director’s cut updates too I, but that’s future talk. I am actively working on this one, so be on the look out for it as soon as I have a bunch of updates to queue up for you guys. vv

Since this tumblr is fairly new, I don’t have that many people to tag, so feel free to do it if you want. XoXo

If you get this, answer with 3 random facts about yourself and send it to the last 7 blogs in your notifications, anonymously or not! Let's get to know the person behind the blog! 💖

My turn I guess :) 1. I’m a Horror-movie/story fanatic. Give me everything to do with the supernatural. Conjuring remains a top favorite, but not a fan of Paranormal Activity or Blair Witch type movies. Give me vampires everyday for the rest of my life. 210%. Not the modern ones, Victorian ones! No, not even Victorian ones in modern times... just no! And they don’t f-ng sparkle! Sheesh! ---------- 2. Gamer-4-Life. I’ve done consoles, PCs and handhelds. My interest ranges from Super Mario to Killer Instinct; Stardew Valley to Call of Duty; Sims 2 to The Witcher 3; Hidden Object games to Racing games. If I had to say it in as few words as possible: “If the game is good; If the story’s good; If I can enjoy myself...I play the game. Simple as that” (Crap, still a lot of words) ---------- 3. I can read a 400+ pages book in one day if the story captivates me. Yup, huge book nerd here. My favorite books keep changing through the years as I keep on reading, but they always contain a good balance of different themes. So never a full-on Mystery/Romance/Comedy, always a mix. I want to be able to cry and smile in the same book. Be bored and then piqued again. Also passionate scenes is a huge A+ pre in my eyes. Why? See, I have this immortal kid inside of me that will ALWAYS sit down and watch a Disney movie (animation). Think golden oldies like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid etc. When I grab a book now, a healthy bit of intense passion keeps me from seeing relationships as cute, puppy-love. A book I can read and say: ‘Yup, that’s sexy. I’m an adult now and I don’t have to turn around when 2 people kiss onscreen” LOL You get extra points if you have a sexy Sicilian Don in your story ;) I’m looking at you Giovanni Battaglia (Sienna Mynx) ---------- So that’s 3 things about me. What makes you tick? Let me know! Xoxo PS: If you have any books to recommend, send them my way. Keep in mind everything I mentioned above. ABCDErotic books are fine too, but the stories tend to be weak and I get bored fast (let’s face it, the focus in those isn’t the story), so give me good balanced books to expand my collection with.

Hi. Another sims 2 blog for me to follow. I like you already! You said sims 2 and other games. Which other games do you like?

Hi nonny, Aww, I like you for following me. Hopefully I’ll start posting soon. Other games I like: - The Witcher 3 - Wild Hunt

- Assassin’s Creed (most of them, but #2 forever) - TES: Skyrim - Stardew Valley (for peace of mind) - Call of Duty (played a few of these) - Subnautica - Journey/Flower/Flow (for serious peace of mind) The Witcher is #1. Even now I’m still discovering stuff. Not to mention that I’ve been hot for Geralt for years. Netflix is just a ++. The other games are in no particular order. But shouldn’t Sims 2 be #1, you ask? It is too, but I’ve practically done everything to do in it. Playing for the sake of playing. I’ve done legacies, challenges etc. Now I mainly use it for Storytelling and object creation for said stories. Will I ever uninstall it? Never!!!! (Even witcher has a 0.01% chance of getting removed, don’t tell Geralt!, so that says a lot about my love for sims 2) Thanks for stopping by <3
