@PipMenace OOo That's cool! So don't hit publish at the mailbox but save them up to open a retail store? Where do I find more details on how to do this/set it up?

Hey! So I've been working on this recently!
The way that I've decided to do it is
- Sim Writes Book
- Create Copy of Book - Placed in a storage box until I got a few to sell!
- Publish Original at the mailbox(however you choose to publish for money or story is up to you!
- Purchase a retail store/lot(I made a coffeeshop/bookstore!)
- Get copies of written books out of the storage box, place in sims inventory
- Travel to Retail store!
- Drag and place written books on displays - Tag as "For Sale" from register
Now sims from other households can purchase books written by this sim!
Note: Since For Rent, there is a current bug with sim-owned retail lots. To allow other households to visit the retail store and purchase books, you must first open the retail store on the owner/household.

@Vandipitty I'm sorry you can't sell them.
However, if you need other families to have the book, as long as you have Seasons, you can give out your copies as gifts. That's how I populate other households with the written books.

With the Life and Death expansion being out now you can probably also add the books to the author's will so when the author dies the books will get inherited by whoever was marked as recipient in the will? So that would be an alternative way to spread books around to other households because the Sims who you mark as recipients don't have to be from same family.
