In my experience, a Masterpiece took almost a week to write...well it seemed like a week. Was probably closer to 4-5 days. Now that might be okay if you are having a second Sim as an author writing other books to keep the income stream. But a solo Sim, yes, Children's books are the way to go. Just wish I had known that during the Writing challenge.

How much does a masterpeace bring?

folcon · « **Reply #17 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:27:37 PM »

A Masterpiece can bring in around 13,000 a week.

My sim's 7th masterpiece had a week pay of $25,000, but she specialized in masterpieces and was both a bookworm and perfectionist.

Not a week, a day. And that's consistent for 6 weeks plus whatever other books you write.

Thanks for correcting me

You can bring in a ton of cash if you have multpile kids all writing books while aging up. Durring one Legacy challenge, had 4 kids all writing books. Together, after getting to YA, they were earning about 35k a week.

I almost always play a writer Sim. What I do is write 4 of every available book and leave the specialist slot open for the masterpieces.

m.sato · « **Reply #24 on:** August 08, 2011, 11:10:10 PM »

Actually, if you write 5 of each book your sim will still specialize in masterpieces as soon as the 5th book is complete; besides, the math gets a little easier.

I just write Trashy novels. Or, I just write random genres. But, I always avoid romance, because it's very time consuming.

I laughed the first time one of my child sims, who had gained 3 writing skill points from reading the toddler books, was able to write trashy novels. I just found that unrealisticly funny, and a litte disturbing from an adult's perspective.

kiko94 · « **Reply #27 on:** August 09, 2011, 06:59:58 PM »

Yeah, but really funny !

Uhm... lol? That's just really disturbing you know.
