| Thanks, Ed. I'll have to take time soon to check out your post and comment on it. I saw it before, but only had a time to look at it briefly. | |

| I had a five year old climbing on my lap at the time, after my attention and/or his turn on the computer. I've never tried sci fi, but I do have a fantasy/adventure type story I'm working on that has more action in it than AH does. It's called Penelope's Journey and the link is in my sig. It's due for an update, but I think it needs something. I may have to stage a few more screenshots for the next update. | |

| Aw, how cute are five year olds? lol! Having raised a few, myself, I know how it can be.
I checked out and started reading Penelope's Journey and I like it! I especially like the way you set the tone for Penelope's moody restlesness and desire to take matters into her own hands. Excellent job there, Em!
One thing that struck me is your use of sets (lots). Nice, simple, basic but having a clean elegance that adds to the story without detracting from the characters. Nicely done!
Also, and just in case (just wanting to cover all bases, here), if you don't have these OMSPs I strongly recommend them and they all work with julsfel's OMSP controller, which makes all OMSPs either visible or invisible all at once with a single click, a must have tool! (How many times did I have to hunt and peck around a lot to find all my OMSPs that I'd made invisible before I found this thing! LOL!) There are a few other OMSP controllers out there which I've tried but this one works consistantly well with no problems.
Anyway, thanks for sharing your work with us, I really enjoy it but it's time for me to get to work on my own stuff. Keep up the great work! |

| Thanks. Some of the early pictures are pretty old, like 2009 or so, so either I didn't know about those OMSP back them or possibly they weren't around yet. I've seen that set a couple of times before and I thought I would have downloaded them but don't remember seeing them in my game. Maybe they're in the collection files and I forget to look there for them. I really would have liked to have those back when I was setting up that scene to make the furniture and things actually tipped over. I don't think I have the OSMP controller. Thanks! | |

You're welcome. Glad to help. |

I guess every 8 months it is! Episode 24 - SchemesAlma set at the desk in her husband's den with a stack of half graded papers in front of her. She was finding herself too distracted to get much work done. Her mind kept going back to lunch last week with Mr. Clark, Mason. They had such a great conversation about books and plans for the school play. It wasn't hard to see why most of the women at the school found him attractive. He had a smile that kept finding its way back into her thoughts. Read more here.[/center]

| Don't faint, but I actually updated recently. It only took a year and a half this time. My son was gone two nights instead of one a few weekends ago so I decided to sit down and get it done. Episode 26 - The Carnival (part 2) | |

| You write really well Em. I think you could turn the story into a novel. | |

| I was afraid I was going to find myself cringing, but I was pretty pleased with it when I read through. It helped me see what I liked about what I'd written so far, so maybe I can change my focus to the stronger parts. You are too kind. | |

| That was fast!
(I'm trying to get rid of dead image links in this thread, so if this is popping up in your new posts tonight, that's why.)
I've been working on new episodes. So expect more regular updates for awhile. | |

| Thanks! She's one of my favorites, appearance-wise. I just changed her back into this hairstyle because the others I tried weren't really doing it for me (I also seem to be in the mood to give makeovers.) I'll definitely have to make a point of sharing her sometime. | |
