What kind of books do you write?
I was kind of interested to see what kind of books people wrote seeing as I have a Sim pursuing a Writing career. My Sim wrote a children's book called "Where's my Sock?" a while ago so I thought it ...

Wow, everyone has such fun with titles. I've never bothered—I just name the books sequentially with the sim's name, as in C-one, C-two, etc. I could make the argument that it's more efficient to keep track of things that way, but really I'm just too lazy to put in the effort.
As to what types of books my sims write, I mix it up a lot. Abot half the spares write children's books, with the child learning painting through the toddler skill books to get a head start. The others are writers because they'll go into journalism, so they write four of each type of book starting with the shortest in order to get their count up without specializing. They switch to articles when they hit level 3 in their career. I know it's boring, but like I said, they're spares and will be out of the house very soon.
For the sims I keep, I either drive up the book total to get to masterpieces, or I make a hopeless romantic so she (always she) can write romance novels starting at writing level six instead of ten. I had one female a while back who had six kids by seven different fathers (okay, not quite) and was always looking to write about whoever she'd brought home the night before. She made a lot of money, too. I think her name was Veronica.
