Writer's Block moodlet not showing/Sims refuse to write for no reason

Hi Chellepie360 

It was just marked as resolved as OP never came back.

• Are you using mods/cc ?
• Could you post a picture of your queue and where it says resume book ? There is still a known issue where the progress resets when you resume.
• Repairing the game helps with issues even if your game is up-to-date.

For me too. Never had this problem before today. And I removed all mods, vanilla game, still the same issue.

UPDATE: I removed mods, and localcache and repaired the game. My sim finally finished the fours books on hold.

Hello crinrict, Weirdly, I played on Sunday (6/04/2025) and it worked just fine.  Thought I would try again today, as just saw your post and would mention that all is good, however, its doing it again.  I would send a pic, but it does not give much, as it just disappears (the action), the computer makes a loading sound and then goes away.  That's about it.

I think with it being okay one day and then not another there is something weird going on, I will have a look to see if the game needs repairing.  (Another side note action to water plants also disappears mainly when off lot)

I have no mods or cc.

Many thanks

Would explain why it worked and then not.
