Please, tell me I'm not dreaming...

You that feelling when you get something you really, really wanted, unexpectedly? That's exactly how I'm feelling right now. I just can't believe I ACTUALLY FOUND Hurricane's game files! It's just... it was right in front of my nose the whole time! Well, apparently those who say that you'll only find something you're really looking for when you're not looking for it are (sorta) telling the truth.

That new story I was intending to write while Hurricane was still disappeared is going to be on a standby state, as Hurricane decided to show itself to the world now, but I've got some plans for it once I finish what I was already doing.

This whole situation taught me a terrifying lesson the hard way and, from now on, I'm going to be extremely cautious towards every single file. It is as they say -- you can never completely trust machines...

Did you see it over here? No? Oh, darn it...

For how long have I been absent? Almost a year?...

Well, what matters is that I decided to return with both bad and good news. Which should I start with? The bad one? I don't know where Hurricane is. Yes, you've read it well - I don't know where it is. You see, I've recently bought a new computer and I just don't know where I've put Hurricane's game file. To be honest, I'm freaking out because I really wanted to take that story 'till the end, but I won't stop searching until I find it - scout's word!

The good is - while I don't find a way to continue with Hurricane - I'm creating a new story! Sure, it won't anything like Hurricane, but I promise you guys will like it. However, this time I took precaution and made a copy of all files. Let's just see if, this time, karma is by my side...

Behold my power!...

...and thou shall be amazed! Muahahah!

Okay, enough with the evil deeds now. I guess you already noticed that... I'm back! Hm, I was expecting something more... big.

So, let me say that I'm full of ideas for Hurricane - and other stories too - and although the desire of starting a new story is huge, I have to finish first my current one (and I still have a looooooong way to go).

For those out there following Hurricane, Chapter 6 is going to take a while since I've been all those 15 days without Sims - and let me tell you, I was going insane.

Aaaaaand... I guess that's all! (oh, have you noticed that I didn't said anyways  a single time, for once? Hurray for me!)

Well, see you guys around!

Stairway to Heaven... or not?

So... Okay, now my brain just froze. Freeze reminds me of ice cream (Mmm, ice cream...) and ice cream reminds me of vacations... That's it! I remember now! (I mean, I remembered that the whole time, I was just finding a way to start this - how lame...)

Anyways (geez, I'm always saying that), I'm off to a - sorta - beachy paradise which means no updates for a while. But don't start panicking - I'll take advantage of that retreat to inspire myself and write on my Hurricane story -- I might even start a new one, who knows? My brain is just too flooded with ideas and it needs - urgently - to be emptied.

Oh well, I guess that's all, folks. I can only wish you some nice vacations as well - if that's the case - and we'll see each others around!

So long, mates!

[New Chapter Submitted] I'm awesome!...

... or maybe not. But that's not what matters here, right? Right.

So... yup, you read well -- I've already submitted Chapter 5 of Hurricane and let me say that I couldn't be more exited! Seriously! This is, with any doubt, my favourite chapter so far -- you'll see why I say this...

Anyways, for those who prefer to read the story on blog, you can do it here:

[New Chapter Submitted] Hip, hip...

... hurray! Three cheers for me!

Anyways, I have great - nop, risk that - awesome news! I have already submitted Chapter 4! Well, sorta. You see, I decided to split this chapter in two parts since both are kinda... non related. I think. You'll see what I mean when I post the whole chapter.

With the splitting (I didn't even knew this word existed - hey, don't judge me, I'm portuguese!), this 1st part turns out to be a bit... small in terms of images, but I think you'll forgive me since I'll submit 2nd part right away too.  x)

Don't hurt me, please!

Er… hello there! I know it’s been awhile since the last post, so that’s why I’m here to say that’s due to my laziness and not because I’m going to drop the story (that a ray falls into my head if that ever happens!).

For that matter, let me say that I’m already about two or three chapters ahead from the first and that the only thing that is left to do is to translate and put them into pictures. I have everything in my head, now I just have to put it into practice.

So, I guess that’s it. I apologize for the long wait and the lack of news, but as soon as this tiny little lazy bug is gone, I promise for every chocolate in the world (I’m so dead if I don’t keep this promise…) that I’m going to put my hands on work.

New story coming!

Man, I've waited for this moment for so long! (Okay, maybe not that much...)

I've already submitted my first story (here) and I couldn't be more anxious. Actually, so far I'm proud of myself. I've always started several stories, but I never got the guts to finish them - let's just hope that this one will be different.

Without further more, here's a sneak peak of what it will be - in terms of pictures - the sticky synopsis and some text. (Note: the image and the text here showed doesn't match)

Well, it will have to do. At least I’m safe here.

With two bags on each arm, I went up the several hauls of stairs, already cursing its extension. I put them down, removing from the jeans pocket the keys that were once given to me. I noticed I was shivering, making me feel stupid when faced with this reaction. It’s just a house, for God’s sake…

Synopsis:

What would you do if you saw something that would change your life forever? Something that would keep you from sleeping and waking every morning with fear? Something that would make you feel that you are always being observed, wherever you are? It’s a nightmare, right? Aria knows it well.

After witnessed a crime involving one of her dearest ones, the one who committed it, always professional in its jobs, couldn’t leave any evidences behind and it wouldn’t be a girl ruin his reputation. Aria knows it, so she ran, getting into a town that she never heard about. It might turn to be an eventual hideout.  But we never know people at its most, who they are or what they might did or are going to do.

Oh, just one more thing!

If you would like to read this story on blog (which, in my opinion, is the best way to do it), I'm also posting this on http://hurricanesims.wordpress.com/
Oh, and by the way, the ones who are possibly reading this on WordPress will get slightly different content, since TSR doesn't allow bad words at all.

Well, I hope you enjoy this new work of mine and, uh... that's it. (;
