This is one of my earliest attempts at the DITFT challenge. I started it in September 2011 based on when I started publishing chapters for it. The chapters were decently written and had some actual plot to it as opposed to being commentary. Then as it is with me, something else shiny caught my eye. Possibly a new EP, possibly Sims 2, or something entirely different. Two months later the computer's hard drive dies. And I had no external back ups of any Sims 3 save. And by then, the Rands were forgotten.
Until recently. Was going through my various blogs for abandoned challenges realized that of them, the Rands were the only one that really tugged at me screaming: continue me! So I remade my founder, grabbed her spouse out of Twinbrook and used CAS's make a baby feature, recreated the kids they had already had. Then came the hard part. Figuring out why they moved. Because I couldn't leave them in Twinbrook. Too much time had gone by. Then it hit me: my plot! While I had initially strived to not do any sort of staging, my idea required staging. So I downloaded pose player, found some poses and shot some scenes. And of course the plot that came decided to morph into something bigger. So the days of not staging are over. And I'm ok with that.
And now, on with the links to the story!
