How to deal with Authors' books?

So, this is what I do: each time one of my sims writes a book, I have them make several copies (10-20) before publishing. They keep one copy in their own personal inventory at all times (though if they take it out to read, you may have to keep an eye on them to make sure they aren't leaving them lying around). One copy goes in a household bookshelf. Other copies are given to children, spouses, significant others, best friends, etc. I typically have them leave a copy in their local library (home world and/or worlds I consider adjacent). I haven't done this yet, but I also plan to start adding a copy to the family keepsake box. Now that we will have wills, we will hopefully also be able to designate sim-written books as heirlooms, so that someone can inherit the author's personal copy.

Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I have them gift a copy to Mortimer Goth, who owns a retail bookstore in Magnolia Promenade. Once Mortimer personally owns the copy through gifting, he can set it for sale, and then just have it restocked so that it is in circulation essentially forever.

Having to gift the books one on one to Mortimer is a bit of a chore, so I am still holding out hope that eventually we will be able to gift more than one item at a time. Still, this system has worked very well for me otherwise.
