Thanks! And I gotta say that’s quite unexpected.. I didn’t think anyone would want to download Addi’s mom. Erm, I’ll edit this post with a link later? She’s in bodyshop someway… lol
Oh, and I just realized you said ‘make’.. do you mean like an older version of Addison? Because Addison’s mother (in the story) I’ll be honest: looks nothing like her.
Just letting you know, you are AMAZING at writing.
I mean, this is probably the coolest idea for a story, ever!! I am completely hooked and I cannot WAIT for the next one! xD
Awww, man. Why can’t Elijah be real? *sigh*
I want a cool water boyfriend. ;D
And like someone said down there, I love how long the chapters are, it actually feels like I’m reading an awesome book… and I can’t get enough of it!
Thank you Edie!! Your comment totally just made me smile (which is a big thing considering I’ve been so stressed this morning fixing my old iPod up for my brother lol)
Moving on.. yes it’s a shame real men aren’t made up of water goodness like Elijah haha
I really love writing so thank you so much for the encouragement ^_^

Thanks Gems! These characters are amazing, I love Ardente *drools all over keyboard* Was he actually born in the game? by the way, love the latest capter of Echo, I hate cliffhangers though
haha but I love writing cliffhangers! =P
And Ardente wasn’t born in game, made him in bodyshop but the picture of him as a cute little tot (in chapter 4) is real. I just aged him down in CAS
I completely love him to.. used to drool over Elijah but lately there has been something about Ardente…. he’s so yummy!
Thanks! These characters are amazing, I love Ardente *drools all over keyboard* Was he actually born in the game? by the way, love the latest capter of Echo, I hate cliffhangers though
Erm.. sorry about asking the same question twice (Ruby was actually me) *smacks self on forehead* I thought my comment didn’t go through so I changed my screen name. Sorry!
lol it’s no problem. I can see the, erm, not even sure what it’s called actually but the number id or something of each user.. Gah, aren’t I technical >.<
Thanks so much for the comments in anycase! Really glad you're enjoying my "Echo." series <3
gosh the last chapter almost made me cry! i love your echo! it’s the best story i have found on sims2 so far! i just recently started playing sims so i read them all today xD can’t wait for the next chapter!
Awww thank you Lily!
New to the sims 2, eh? It’s an awesome game and making a sims story can be really fun =)
Thanks for the lovely comment, I completely love writing “Echo.” <3
im absolutely in love with “Echo.” lol. i love that they’re so long too. cuz i just cant get enough. haha. i cant wait for the next chapter or part or whatever. lol. i’ve been up all night reading all the chapters. lol. its 5 a.m.! haha..well now im just rambling. so, great job! keep it up! ur an amazing writer. i love the series, hope the next chapter/part/whatever is up soon!
(:,
katelyn
Wow you read all the chapters together? No wonder it’s so late.. that’s, like 40,000 words you just read haha
Thanks so much for the lovely comment ^____^ Still working on the next part but chapter eight (part one) was so enjoyable for me to do! Really glad you liked it xxx
ahhhh. i’ve never been so anxious for a sims 2 series, everrrrr. i check the exchange thing every 5 minutes. lol. u’ve got me hooked. i hope u know u can never end this. i’ll go insane. lmao. well anyways, i absolutely loveeee “Echo.” and i cant wait for the next part. FANTASTIC job. (:
Thanks again! You’re so sweet!! <3
But, erm, part two won't be up anytime soon – still haven't finished writing it lol
I'll keep this site updated though =)
no problem! & well thanks! lol.
& ahhhh! nooo! lol. that’s ok. i guess it’ll be worth the wait, right? lol.
& okey dokeyyy. (:

sorry to keep bugging u, but i was curious. how long does it usually take u to like finish up a part or chapter? i’m thinking about starting my own series, and i was just wondering how long it usually took. lol.
By: Katelynclair. (: on August 2, 2009 at 2:44 am
You’re not bugging me lol
And you should totally start your own series – they are so much fun! My writing and photo editing have improved so much from doing Echo =)
Not too sure how long a chapter takes me to do.. it really depends. I mean chapter one I wrote through the really late hours and that probably took me a few weeks to write since I never did it during the day.. Then chapter three I finished really quickly, that was a breeze to write (and take photos for) but chapter five I spent ages procrastinating over and had a huge writer’s block with. I really couldn’t say a definite time period for a chapter.. they vary lots. Guess it depends how much time and effort you’re willing to put into it. What I can say is that each chapter is usually minimum of 5 pages long, max of 9 pages (and that’s writing with Veranda font size 8 ) and around 4 – 7000 words.
Good luck!
By: echogems on August 2, 2009 at 10:38 am
hm..i might.
but i go back to school next week so idk if i’m gonna have the time. i guess i can make them short…idk.
well first i gotta think of a story. lol.
thanks for ur help!
No problem =)
And only do it if you think you’ll enjoy it School does take up a lot of time so you don’t want to be stressing about something else on top of that lol
x
i took a pic today of one of my sims and it gave me a really good idea. so i think i might do it.
& yeah i know. school is bad enough. lol.
By: Katelynclair. (: on August 3, 2009 at 4:13 am
i posted a prolouge for a story. would u mind looking at it? its called the blake family. i couldnt think of a name so i just put the family name up. lol.
Sure I’d be glad to read it =) You’ll have to post the link here though or tell me what your simpage is called because the only blake family album I could see on the exchange was posted 2008 lol
wait! my story is called lost & found. i figured out how to change the name and i finally found out what i wanted to name it! so thats what its called! lol.
I read it! Like the name and kidnapped stories are always interesting ^_^ Very short though… but it sounds as if you have a ton of ideas for what’s to come judging from the supernatural twist
yeah i know its short..):.
but i had to hurry up and finish it.
it deleted the prolouge thing, i think.
so idk if it makes any sense.
does it?
By: Katelynclair. (: on August 4, 2009 at 5:30 pm
Yeah it makes sense.
I did kind of wonder at how fast the relationship started but yep, I wasn’t think ‘what the hell happened there?’ at any point lol
By: echogems on August 4, 2009 at 8:05 pm
well i was thinking about doing like a special chapter about they’re relationship before they had the kid.
but i think my prolouge got deleted. what did u read?
By: Katelynclair. (: on August 4, 2009 at 8:31 pm
wait, they’re is supposed to be their. i cant stand it when i do that. lol.
Well I wouldn’t worry ’bout it too much. ^_^
It’d be pretty hard to get all those feelings across in under 10 slides.. maybe slow the pace a bit and try not to rush through events/feelings?
idk I’m probably the wrong person to speak to for advice, I mean my writing is ridiculously slow paced lol
well i really dont have the paitence to do more than maybe 15. lol. and kaylin (the toddler) is about to grow into a child. so im trying to get as much done as possible, as quick as i can. i may have to do like a “5 years later” type of thing. idk. & yes you r! im so glad to have SOMEONE for advice. and your writing is insanely awesome. even if it is slow paced. lol.

Oh I Love Echo i Must Say I just stumbled upon it one day quit By Accident. Just Looking for Something Different To Read, Man Was i Hooked from the start! I’m soo Glad you Put These Characters Up There Super awesome.
