I have thought about converting it to a book, maybe as my writing improves I will eventually turn it into a book. I think it would fit pretty well into the urban fantasy genre. I think the hardest part would be coming up with the setting.
I'm all for you compiling your stories into a huge Hailey detective novel! I think it’ll be amazing if there was a simlit book of compiled simstories WITH pictures. I’d love to read a book like that and marvel at other player’s creativity. I agree with Plumbob that the game provides plenty of ‘setting’ so there’s no real need to elaborate more in writing unless you specifically want to. I’m rubbish at writing scenes but knowing that the pictures are there helps in that I know even if I don't explain something well, others will understand through the pictures hehe. It's like a safety net while I try to figure out writing settings. :)

Uhh not taking notes when writing a story is not as glamorous as it sounds. There’s a lot of “What was that part of the story I fleshed out in my head when I was prepping dinner yesterday?” and “Get out of my head! I want to think of something else!” So yeah, seems like a ton of self-imposed suffering not to write notes. At least there’s no chance of fingers lost while cooking. Thank you anyway haha! :lol:
Oh I'm the same, I definitely have a "map" on my head of which Sims 4 locations are geographically near each other and how long it might take to get places.
Ooh! I think about that too. I use the fan made world map which ties all the towns together for my story (hopefully they update it for ecoliving and glimmerbook.) I’ve got certain places (windenburg/oasis spring) that require long distance travel like planes or road trips, but for the more town-ish and suburban places I think of them as distrincts that are close enough to reach, at most taking 45 minutes via highway. Sulani and Selvadorada are definitely long distance travel places.
