Gray -

Spoiler:

Haha. I always feel obligated to marry in the placeholders, it's nice to see someone hold out and say uh uh.
I like Yvonne's new hair. It looks good on her.
Andrea's internal screams were hysterical!
Ooh, I wonder if it's a boy.

[graymondaysleep]

Jenn -

Spoiler:

Thanks so much your response!!
Haha, right? I feel like that sometimes too, but I'm sure Andrea will make sure, from beyond the grave, that Yusun doesn't get married in hehe!
Thank you! I love short hair on sims, it's shame there aren't as much nicer looking CC ones around compared to the long hair, but I'm still searching!
Yeah, Andrea's internal screaming was my favourite bit to write.

[graymondaysleep]

Chapter 3 is up!
It asks the age old question: Where do babies come from?

[graymondaysleep]

The first part of Austen and Wynne's college adventures are up!

Don't forget to vote >> here! <<

[Pony]

I read the prologue

Spoiler:

I love your writing style. Yvonne is hilarious!

[graymondaysleep]

Pony:

Spoiler:

Oh my gosh thank you so much for reading! I'm glad you like my writing style, I was a bit worried it was a little hasty at some points...
Yvonne's been my favourite heiress so far, I've tried to do about 4 legacies before this one stuck and I just love her so much, I'm glad someone else likes her too!
Thanks again for the comment!

[simsterlyrock]

I just read all the updates and love it! I'm a huge book nerd and always have a book on me, so I'm excited to see what names you come up with.

[graymondaysleep]

simsterlyrock:

Thanks so much for your kind reply! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far !
A lot of the names are classic authors (I tried to stay away from the modernist genre but a few slipped in there by accident ) so I hope you'll be pleasantly surprised by my choices! A lot of the authors I've chosen are also favourites of mine so all of the future generations will have special places in my heart

[graymondaysleep]

Part 2 of the first gen's college years is up!

Thank you to everyone who voted in the polls! The outcome was honestly unexpected!

[simsterlyrock]

Spoiler:

That was a whirlwind of an update! I'm excited for Austen and Cherry's wedding and excited to see their future kids (I'm guessing they'll have at least 4), but I'm sad that Wynne and Amar broke up. I never really liked him though. Even though he was really only in one update (definitely almost typed episode...a sure sign I watch too much TV...), he just seemed like a not-nice-dude. But I'm hopeful that Wynne will find someone. Do you plan on playing the spares alongside the main family?

[MichelleCYoung]

Just finished reading. I really like this! You have a very engaging voice, and the characters have some depth, too. I loved

Spoiler:

Wynne's rebound from Amar. She really grew as a person. Sometimes, the hardest things we face are the best things for us, after all. And I hope you play her, at least long enough to get her perma-plat.

Also, adorable couples are adorable.

[graymondaysleep]

simsterlyrock:

Spoiler:

Thank you so much! Cherry and Austen's wedding is going to be a lot more eventful than Yvonne and Andrea's quickie one that's for sure! Don't worry about calling them episodes, I call my readers "viewers" so that's probably a similar sign lmao!
You wouldn't have liked Amar at all if Wynne had become heir, I had some evil plans in mind.
Don't worry, Wynne will be completely happy by the end of her life, and yes, I do plan on playing the spares too. I'm so attached to these sims I can't imagine not ever playing them again.

Michelle:

Spoiler:

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're liking my writing style, I was a bit worried it was a little impersonal but it's nice to hear that it's not as bad as I think it is
Wynne's rebound was the hardest thing for me to write because I didn't want it to be so flimsy like "oh, she's depressed and now she's happy" I took some realistic elements from my own life and struggles and I'm glad it all paid off. Wynne's character growth was one of the most important things I wanted to do with the final college chapter.
I also wanted Wynne and Austen to be like real sisters now the tension of becoming heiress dissolved.

Thank you for reading and commenting!

[graymondaysleep]

The Bookers are back!

Generation 2 is just beginning!

[simsterlyrock]

Yay for updates!

Spoiler:

I'm glad we got to see a little bit of Wynne's life post-college. I hope things work out for her and Jace!

at Yvonne walking in on Austen and Cherry on the bed. Only in the sims! I can't wait for the wedding next time.

[graymondaysleep]

Spoiler:

Thank you so much! I hope you're happy with me keeping you up to date with Wynne's life. I got a few plot points up my sleeve for her hehehehehe.
That was my favourite part! I just knew it would be something that Yvonne would do lmao! I shall update in a few days. I'm super busy tomorrow cus I'm working a boxing day sale ;A;

[dbars107]

Love it looking forward to more!

[graymondaysleep]
