Well, with Simnano coming up starting in July, I’ve decided it’s time to dive back into Sims. If I post one post per day from now ’til then, I’ll have time to do a full rotation of my other stories as well as get the backlog of posts I have not published out of the way. Which will give me the ability to really concentrate on my Simnano stories in July. Which will be… (drumroll) … my Ramblers and Tails of Sulani. I’m going to be alternating days posting them during July, aiming for one post a day. That’ll give me the break from the story driven Tails every other day, and reduce the difficulty of posting every day. I hope. At least, that’s the plan.

So, here’s the schedule:

1. June 15th: (today) Master Simmer Chapter 4.1 – starting the new generation!
2. June 16th: posting the beginning for my EPIC challenge, the prologue and the first chapter, as well as getting it on the blog for my list of challenges. This has already been played, I just haven’t posted or even formatted the pictures for it.
3. June 17th: Those Crazy Irish Chapter 3.3
4. June 18th: Foreshadowed Sunset, Chapter 5 – this is a chapter that I have already set up the pictures for, I just haven’t written, so when I get back to the rotation in August, I’ll be able to start playing again.
5. June 19th: Townie Rotation, the Morse-Voom family – Week One. I will also be setting up the Eco Living families so they’ll be safely in my Sims list, and updating my to-do list to include their introductions and stuff. As for actually working on said to-do list, I’ll start working on that in August.
6. June 20th: Who’s Crazy Now? Chapter 1.7
7. June 21st: Bundles From Sixam, Chapter Four
8. June 22nd: Broomstick Files, Chapter 1.3 – this will start a few days’ run at trying to catch up on the backlog of pictures I have for this story, because I played WAY far ahead of where I have posted, and I really would like to be able to start playing with Caizey again in August when Simnano is done.
9. June 23rd: Broomstick Files, Chapter 1.4
10. June 24th: Broomstick Files, Chapter 1.5
11. June 25th: Broomstick Files, Chapter 1.6
12. June 26th: Broomstick Files, Chapter 1.7 (the last chapter of pictures I have sitting in my “drafts” folder)
13. June 27th: That’s Life, Chapter 1.3
14. June 28th: Wyld Game, Chapter 1.3
15. June 29th: Island Spirits, Chapter Six
16. June 30th: Bell Booms, Chapter Three
17. July 1st: Ramblers, House 11, Chapter 4 (the beginning of Simnano)
18. July 2nd: Tails of Sulani, Chapter 2.5

After that, it’ll be switching days back and forth between Ramblers and Tails each day until August. Once August hits, I’ll probably take a short break, and then get back to my Townie To-Do list, as well as the full story rotation, with all the stories ready to begin play again and nothing hanging over my head. Which will be a huge relief!

The only other thing I need to do/plan to do before July hits is update the Master Simmer Challenge rules to get it caught up with the Eco Lifestyle expansion.

Again, I apologize for the extended Simming break, but with my son and partner living at home for the last few months, I simply haven’t had extra time to Sim. They just moved out a week or two ago to their first “official” apartment, so things are finally settling down to “normal” again.

Anyway, wish me luck on getting everything done!
