What do you use to tell stories for your Sims?

I don't. I play wants-based

@waterywatermelon thank you so much! A way to write my family's history in game, with pictures... This is amazing!

@texxx78 You should see a button in the Universal Control Panel (UCP). It looks like a tiny photo album picture. You can't miss it. Click on that button. The game will take you into Cameraman mode, and you can focus the camera and take a picture. Once you have taken a picture, that picture will automatically go into the active Sim's photo album, and you can write a little title and description.

For me at least, I really dislike the built-in memories system, and I usually disable all memories. Instead of creating auto-memories, I just make custom memories/snapshots and fill up the scrapbooks that way.

How can we add custom memories in sims 3 scrapbook? Would love to do it. Is it posible?

Honestly one of the only reasons that keeps me playing is making the story up in my head but also screenshots are fun too

All (fictional) stories start in somebody's head, so...

Ever since I found out Sims 3 keeps track of days I've been interested in story telling with the day tracker. Just started a new save where my sim is writing books as a form of memories that are stamped with the in-game date. I'm probably going to have to build a large library eventually :D

It's all in my head. I don't have the energy to blog or vlog about it.

Mostly in my head, but a few photo snippets here and there of parts of that bigger picture.
