Description
Get paid to express your ideas with beautiful turns of phrase, and words — wonderful words!
Aspirations
- The Author branch pairs naturally with the Bestselling Author aspiration, as the tasks will often align and the rewards from the career can help build an office area that keeps your Sim inspired.
Tips
- You will need a Computer to complete the Daily Tasks. However, you will receive one after your promotion to level 2 that has an Inspired effect, so you might not want to buy one yet if your Sim is low on money.
- On the first two levels, if you read books on Writing you will save study time later.
