Family Bios from Sunset Valley - The Grant and Lee Families

Brief family bios of those Sims important enough in Sunset Valley to earn a regular spot in the local paper. Any Sim without a listed Sim origin is one of mine or born in this game. Any sim listed with Sim Origins was downloaded from the Exchange and the creator's forum name is displayed.

She still pursues her first love, science, with a passion.

  4. Yes, this blog really really needs bios - cause even I have a hard time remember who is in the town and it gives me a chance to introduce all the offspring of the original Sims. There are a lot of teens and it won't be long in game time till there are a lot of new young adults.

    Gonna keep me out of trouble for some time writing these.

  5. Fantastic! I love bios. I feel like they not only help the readers get a handle on who's who, but they help the writer get more of a grip on their characters too! That's why I love doing them.

    That being said, I love all your characters! There's something interesting about all of them.

    Voted!

  6. In this blog, the readers definitely need a handle on who's who. I started with a fair number of Sims, and they've raised families, gotten jobs, etc for a long time.

    Hmm, haven't dropped your Pesces in yet. Should do that.

    Did you ever get around to reading the finale to Jerod's story?
