Sims 3 Song Writing Issue

I have Sims 3 and all the right extension packs for songwriting to work, but I can't find the option to write songs. My sim has mastered all the instruments and is a singer, so they should be able to write songs, right? well no! It does not appear at all when I click on any instrument. Chat told me to remove the story progression temporarily, and it didn't work. I was wondering if my other mods could be an issue or if it's just a bug in the game. Please let me know if there is a way to fix it!

    This is what I thought but when I got to level 4 of the singing career it said I could write songs and create an album to sell. 

  • Laurynlmiller​  You can sell albums, sure, but there's no Write Song interaction.  I think the text for that promotion says this?

    Time to work your star image. There’s a brand new stage outfit, and with your original songs and four Sing-A-Grams recorded, you can now sell your album for exposure and Simoleons!

    It's worded poorly, but I would guess what it's trying to say is that your sim has written a couple new songs and released an album, not that you can have your sim write songs.  It's like saying that your sim in the medical profession is going to or has graduated from medical school—it doesn't happen on-camera, so to speak; you're just supposed to understand that it did.
