*de-lurks*

As a sim-story writer, have you ever read a story that was just so fantastic (with totally awesome pics) that you
A - think you ought to put more effort into your own sim-stories (and pictures).
or
B - think maybe you ought to just give up trying.
?

That is how I feel right now. :p Your story is THAT fantastic! I wish I could write as well as you can.

I started at chapter 33 the other day (after reading chapter 1 and seeing your comment about starting at ch33) and have now caught up. I fully intend to go back and read the beginning chapters since I'm curious to see how your writing has changed (assuming it has by comments you've made) and because I want to read more of the beginnings of this family.

awwww thank you so much, sleepycat!!! n_n I really don't know what to say... I am very humbled by that.

I would wish to aspire to choice

C - Inspire you to write more

It is something that I have often felt from others stories that I admired, and their talents and kindness have always kept me wanting to stretch my abilities as well... so I really would wish to pay that forward :)

And yes, my writing has changed a LOT since the first chapters... but hopefully in a good way :D

It's great to get this extra insight into Claire's character :) She's one of my favourites so far!

aww good I'm glad. I really like her, too. She's turned out to be a really cool character for me to write. :)

I really like this! this is like a recap of everything that happened to make her who she is. it also tells you things you would know about her if you sat down and had a conversation with her.

this was a GREAT idea!

Thanks so much, Qui!! I'm glad you said that, about how it's like sitting down and having a conversation with her. That's what I was hoping to achieve!! So yay!!! *\o/*

Oh, very interesting! It's good to take a walk down memory lane and remember Claire's grandmother too. Seems like so long ago!

Goodness...Claire might be me! It's easier to see with it all laid out like that but the fear of being seen as weak and I'm sorry to say, the stubbornness and the hot temper all rings true for me. Must be why I like her so much! ;)

I'm a Taurus as well. I don't know if you chose her birthday based on the zodiac but it is SPOT ON.

Honestly, I didn't even pick the personality based on the sign... it never even crossed my mind!! Wow that's so weird. I'll have to go back later after everyone else has been written and see how well they all match up (I'd hate for it to influence what I have done so far lol).

I'm so glad you can identify with her. I think that's great... it means I'm heading in the right direction with the characterization. :)
