Ideas
My Sim cannot finish a book every time she tries too. This issue was apparently fixed but I am experiencing it much more often than I did previously. I am able to write 1 book after trying & failing to write 5+ books.
My Sim will write until the book is nearly complete then the task just cancels, she does not get distracted or stop on her own. Then when I tell her to continue the book the task appears for a second & she sits at the computer but then the task cancels & disappears, my sim will get a little likes writing bubble appear above her head like she is writing but she is not.
I have tried this save vanilla and it is still happening.
Ran into this twice today. It doesn't happen every time, but when it does, the only thing i can seem to do is scrap the book and start over. It's been making it hard to finish the Ghost Historian aspiration since i have tried and failed to write the necessary final horror book twice now. No writer's block, no creative burnout. Like, I had one fail just now, then went to write another book, (children's so it would take less time) that completed and then went back to try and finish the first one and it failed again, so there is definitely not anything going o that is stopping him from finishing books in general, just THAT one.
