Decision--A long post, but stay with me...

I've decided to fast track my Manor House Collection. Based on the poll I conducted several weeks ago, it seemed most people wanted me to work on other projects while slowly completing the Manor House Collection.

However, I've started feeling like there are fewer and fewer simmers in the community and the game has lost some of its steam. I still love creating, but I see the writing is on the wall here: the game's popularity has been on the decline.

Maxis has already begun work on The Sims 3, and I don't want to take another 8 months to get the MH sets out when I don't know what the simming landscape could look like by then.

SO, the two projects I would have worked on (a kitchen set and a window companion set to the Pedimentary doors), will now be placed on the back burner while I focus all my energy and talents on the MH sets.

I have that one mini-set made up of the unsatisfactory pieces from the MH Parlor set, but after that, I'll be releasing the first of the Manor House Collection sets (which I believe will be Garden set).

I'm still dealing with school and work and everything else under the sun, so I cannot say when the first MH sets will appear, but it definitely will be in the next few months.
