Read novel

<< < (2/5) > >>

It sucks that Sims who haven't written novels and don't live with anyone who has will get the want to read one. It also would have been nice for EAxis to allow you to order extra copies of your novels to give to friends or sell in a shop. Someone here posted a method to get multiple copies but it's really something they should have included in the game.

I just read that thread and I thought "novel delivery...what novel delivery?"

I actually wrote a tweak to allow you to sell novels in shops - they cost slightly more than books from shelves.  They restock just like regular buy-mode items and apparently are exact clones despite showing up as "Book Title" when out of stock.  'Tis attached, if you want it.

What I do in my hood is have the novel writer buy a cheapo community lot, putting the novel up for sale, and then have the owner of the local bookstore go to the lot and buy the novel to stock in their store.  That way the novel writer can go back to the community lot and retrieve the original copy to keep on their shelf.

Neat! I've never had an OFB bookstore either... It will be a busy evening I think!

caterpillar:
Thanks, rufio. I haven't had a bookstore in ages because they only sold the base game books, and I just got bored with it. Now there's actually a reason to have a bookstore.
