#simblrgratitudeday

As a pose creator, I have always been openly appreciative of the CC creators as I use so many to go along with my poses. So I want to give a big shout out to them! To name a few: Severinka, Sandy at Around The Sims 3, Danjaley, riveranepondsims, The Bleeding Woodland, RStarSims3, QuizicalGin, Simenpaule, Secrets of the six killers, curious clementine...... But an exceptional thank you goes out to all the creators of stories. To those who use my poses and display them so beautifully! Those who take one pose, and use it in an entirely different theme or situation than I portrayed it or planned it to be used. I love seeing my poses in your stories and you will never know what joy that gives me. Especially discovering someone new! (please tag me!) Stories make the world a better place, allow people to escape their woes and even give hope during troubled times. A laugh or a chuckle can help lift the world and holding a literal character's hand during sad times can help heal the reader too in the best ways. All authors are heroes to me! Happy Simblr Day to you all!

You are so very kind @kevinvoncrastenburg , thank you😊

Seeing your content here brightens all my days, it makes me smile and I love you for it. Please keep doing what your doing and never feel that your content isn't good enough. We're all just here because we love the sims, and whatever you post, it's wonderful. 🥰

There's people I still want to individually give shoutouts to, but I really want to make a post dedicated to simmers who get notes ranging anywhere from three to twenty. Simmers who have posts that get one comment, and maybe two reblogs if you're lucky. There's nothing wrong with your content, the story you're creating is valid, the notes will come, the followers will come, just be patient and keep putting your all in your work. I personally love finding new simmers who are beginners with their content because I get to witness how your style evolves, it's always a fun sight to see!

I appreciate all of you—the lurkers, the likers, the commenters, the DMers, the rebloggers, the creators, everyone. If you're reading this, I'm talking about you. You're all important and I'm glad you're here. Thank you for being a part of my world.

So for simblr gratitude day I had to be a little extra and create a video in honor of @digital-deluxe's story Public Enemies. I've consumed a lot of mafia fiction and I'm not lying when I say that this is one of the best narratives I've seen about a crime family. For a story about a man's rise in his crime family, pacing is highly important and that is something Kia excels in as the reader is allowed to follow John from the moment of his birth. The writing is realistic, the characters are intriguing yet flawed -- if you love mafia narratives Public Enemies is definitely a story that you should be reading and sharing with others.
