Freelance Writer doesn't save writing progress?

So I'm not sure if this is actually a bug, but it's fairly annoying.  I had my sim start working on a level 8 freelance writer job to ghostwrite a book (I think it was a science fiction book) and whe...

    @Sharkette126, perhaps you are making the same mistake that I made at first... once you start writing the book from the Freelance section, if you take a break from it you will have to pick it back up again from the Writing section of the computer (just like before the Freelance career existed)! 🤨  I thought that the game was bugged until I looked in the Writing section where it said "Resume Writing..." and then when I clicked on that I found my book! :eahigh_file:

    Also, when you finish writing the book it will say that you can publish it -- but don't do that or you can't complete your Freelance gig! (Or you will have to write another book!)  Instead, go into your Sim's Personal  Inventory and find the book there, and then click on it and there should be an option to "Submit Book for Approval"!  After that you will either get the book accepted, or they will tell you that you need to refine it before they will accept it.  Once the book is accepted, you will automatically be paid and the book will be taken from your inventory. 😉

    Hope this helps your situation!  Please update us if it did or not! 🙂
