Hello
More update: Silly me, I found the horror genre and yep it causes the jump. So for my sim poetry and horror cause the jump but seem to write every other genre. As far as I can tell at this point.
It also appears that when harvesting what the sim harvests does not appear in the backpack/inventory. Planted a grape to test. It grew all the way to harvestable. It was Excellent quality and no excellent quality is in the inventory after harvest. Hope this helps. I guess I could try planting more than one plant to see if harvesting stops after one plant is harvested.
