Spring 2024 Update

Happy spring everyone! I thought I’d take a quick moment to reach out and check in with you before I turn off my lights for the night. There is a lot going on behind the scenes here, and it’s all good stuff! Though we’ve still hit a huge stall on Destiny’s story—I promise it’s coming sooner than later—I’m returning to some old friends that we haven’t seen on the blog in a long time. Remember…

Chapter Nine Teaser - The Big Two-Four

I awoke with a start the morning of my birthday, the loud clatter of dishes from nearby ending my slumber. I popped my eyes open and looked around, disoriented and in unfamiliar surroundings; then I remembered I was at Jason’s house and breathed a sigh of relief. I sat up a little in the big, comfortable bed and pushed the curtain aside to peer out the window. The sky looked like it was made of…

A Tribute

A tribute to two women who were instrumental to the Sims community for over a decade.

Hi Sims fans! I wanted to take a moment to pay my respects to two Sims creators who have left us, ones who have made an enormous impact on the game they—and we—love. If you dabble in custom content at all, chances are, you have items in your game by artist CmarNYC. She has contributed greatly to the modding community with some excellent programs and utilities, and has been active for many years.…

Teaser - The Audition

Destiny finds herself at the Los Sueños Private Club with proprietor Arthur Atwood. He's seeing stars, but his advances are summarily dismissed. What's in store for the handsome prop and the object of his affection? Stay tuned!

I got into my convertible and started it, opening the garage door to a sky full of snow drizzling down upon the city. A light dusting had accumulated since I’d gotten home two hours earlier, which surprised me. On the drive to the club, the snow fell at varying rates, from heavy to non-existent; at the club, it was more on the lighter spectrum. As I pulled up to the club’s parking lot, I couldn’t…

Winter 2024 Update

#TheFarmerLegacy #TheSims3 #SimsFanFiction A quick update on the status of Destiny's story. Please, hang in here with us a little longer!!

Sul Sul Sims fans! I have a huge apology to issue to everyone who has been waiting so patiently for Chapters Nine and Ten of Destiny’s continued story. I know I promised both chapters before the end of the year, and here it is January 26—the first month of the year almost in the history books—and yet, there is no update. For this, I’m deeply sorry. This time, I don’t have an excuse aside from…

Happy New Year! The Farmer Legacy 2023 Year In Review

Happy New Year! My short, but encouraging, year-end update. Come see how we did in 2023.

Happy new year everyone! I had some serious doubts as to whether I was going to—whether I should—make a year-end post for what was without doubt one of the worst years of my personal life. But, in the interest of continuity—and because I’m a bit of a completist—here I am with the fifth annual year-end update. Who am I to break a five-year streak? First, I’ll get to the “business end” of things…

Happy "Spooky Day!"

It's finally here! Happy Halloween! (Sorry for the double post. I'm just super proud of this screenshot. Thanks again, Chris!

Happy Halloween/Spooky Day everyone! By the way, the story WILL be returning before the holidays come at us full force. I’m still writing the next installments, but my plan is to have them up on the blog before Christmas (ideally before Thanksgiving!) Special thanks to Bee at Poses by Bee for the pose. You can find this pose in the “Wanda” set. Destiny’s beautiful dress is courtesy of BEO…

Fall 2023 Update

Checking in with the status of the Farmer Legacy, and a sneak preview of the next chapter. Come see what I've been up to!

Hello, faithful readers and Sims fans! It has been a long time since you’ve heard from me—or Destiny, for that matter—so I thought I’d give you a quick update on what’s going on behind the scenes at The Farmer Legacy. I’m happy to report that I’ve been working on the next chapter pretty steadily since mid-summer. It’s not nearly finished, but I’m making progress with it. I actually have three…

Arthur Atwood - A Character Biography

At long last, the Farmer Legacy continues with Arthur's biography. Come meet the man who will star, side by side, with the world's biggest singing sensation, Destiny HIll. #TheFarmerLegacy #TheSIms3

i. The small, rustic village of Monte Vista was located in a country separated from the Mainland by the Great Sea. Known for its fine wineries and rich food, the town, though sparsely populated, bustled with activity. The village center sat atop a large mesa, surrounded by the rolling hills of farmlands where crops and grapes were grown. Only the well-to-do villagers resided on the mesa; the…

Something Different...

Indulge me for a moment, would you, and let me answer this question? More Legacy is coming soon (I promise!!)

What is one word that describes you? Hello everyone! I normally use this space for the Legacy, but while I’m editing Arthur’s story (which I’m still aiming to publish by Friday, Saturday at the very latest) I thought I’d take a few minutes to truly introduce myself to y’all. I’m going to attempt, if I may, to answer the question posed above. What is one word that describes me? Determined. I…

A new chapter is coming soon, which means I'm back from my hiatus! Arthur's bio is coming later this week, so keep your sights on this site for the official release. It feels so good to be back! Let the Farmers roll! #theSims3 #SimsLit

Hey everyone!  If you’ve been around the site at all over the past few days, you might have noticed some minor changes taking place on the home page, and on the site in general. This can only mean one thing: I’m coming back! I know it’s been a while, and the past two months are ones I’d rather forget. But I’m finally writing again, and will be updating with a brand new chapter by the end of this…

Happy Fifth Birthday, Farmer Legacy!

Happy Fifth Birthday to all of my Farmer women and their families!! I can't believe it's been five years already. Here's to another five, and so many more!!

I can’t believe that it’s been FIVE YEARS since I first published The Prologue (Or, When Frannie Met Charlie) in all of its awful, poorly written glory. I’ve come such a long way since those days, but I’m thankful for those first few, formative months writing this blog. I’m thankful for the friends I’ve made along the way, and the ones I’ve yet to meet. Most of all, I’m thankful to everyone who…

A Short Break, But I Will Return!

I'm announcing a short break in writing while I attend to a personal family matter. Destiny's story will return soon! #TheFarmerLegacy #TheSims3 #TheSims

Hello Sim and romance fans. I so dislike needing to start the year off with an unplanned writing break, but I’ve had a bit of a dire family emergency that takes my time, and all of my concentration, away from this blog and my other one as well. It’s extremely personal, so please forgive me if I’m not exactly available during this difficult time. Life is never so easy as just saying something,…

Happy New Year! The Farmer Legacy 2022 Year In Review

From Chris and me at the Farmer Legacy, we wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous new year! Come back and see us in 2023! More of Destiny's story continues soon! #TheSims3 #TheSims

Happy New Year everyone! I can’t believe I’m writing another year-end summary for the Farmer Legacy. It seems like just yesterday I did the one for 2021. Where did this year go, anyway?  The blog has done very well this year, but I’ll get to that in a moment. Some stats look a little on the low side, but there’s an excellent reason for that. Personally, this has been one of the roughest years in…

Our girl Destiny FINALLY catches a break in the newest installment of The Farmer Legacy. Jared comes clean with the real reason behind their breakup. And Des visits old friends and family in Twinbrook. Don't forget to "Like" and "Subscribe!" #TheSims3

The weather had turned colder, the foliage at peak colors on the trees around the city. We were two weeks into preparation for recording “Maybe It’s Better This Way” under Ernie’s new label, Nova Records. I would be his groundbreaking artist. Ernie placed so much faith in my talent and songwriting skills; I was stressed out. A temporary band was helping me to arrange the music for my new song.…
