[[File:Writing skill icon.png|left]]'''Writing''' is a [[skill]] in ''[[The Sims 3]]''.
Sims can only write by using a [[computer]].
Line 234:
Along with the traits that provide a bonus to individual writing genres, there are some traits that any sort of professional writer could find useful:
:'''Bookworm''' Sims get a bonus to writing quality and write novels faster.
:'''Artistic
:'''Computer Whiz''' Sims enjoy playing on the computer more and can fix broken computers faster.
:Sims that '''Hates the Outdoors''' will never go Stir-Crazy. This is useful for writer Sims, who rarely need to leave the house.
*'''Adventurous''' Sims will take longer to become Stir Crazy, at approximately 9 days.
:'''Hopeless Romantic''' Sims are more prominent in the romance genre, and can start writing romance novels much earlier. As romance novels are some of the most profitable works, this can speed up the writer’s profit rate.
:'''Insane''' Sims can talk to themselves, which allows them to fulfill their need for social interaction, especially if they live alone.
:'''Green Thumb''' can talk to potted/planted plants to quickly refill their social need (much more effective than Insane's talk to self as it lasts roughly twice as long and seems to fill the need more quickly. One talk to plant will refill almost the whole social from empty, while insane requires 5-6 talk to self to do the same).
Line 244 ⟶ 245:
:'''Perfectionist''' Sims take longer to do many things but do them better than normal. This includes writing novels.
:'''Slob''' Sims don't mind a dirty house or body, allowing them more time to write.
:'''Couch Potato''' Sims sitting in a particularly comfy chair while writing get up to a +25 mood bonus with this trait (this is redundant if the Sim uses the Holo-Computer{{Vgversion|TS3:ITF}}). Sims may
:'''Neurotic''' Sims can use the "Freak Out" action to prevent/eliminate stress from writing for long stretches of time.
:'''Brooding''' Sims can start writing poetry right away, although at the cost of a 10% learning gain rate of the writing skill.
:'''Avant Garde''' Sims can write Poetry and Satire in lower skill requirements.
Additionally, for each bonus traits that a Sim possesses upon completing a novel, the book royalty is added by +25%.

===Correcting Past Mistakes===
:''(Sim) has read some of your very first books and determined they weren't quite up to snuff. Prove that you've improved as a writer by writing a novel that generates §100 in weekly royalty checks, and you'll improve your relationship with (Sim). Your books will also improve from then on!''
