The Bradford Legacy: The War Year Part 4 - Dotty's Story

[silverbellelj]

Seeing as how today is the 69th anniversary of the D-Day invasion, I hurried up and finished filming this so I could get it out.  Click on the picture to read the latest installment of the War Years Saga.  This time, you get to hear Dotty's story.  I hope you enjoy.  Comments can be left here or on Boolprop.

Thank you.


This chapter was a bit of an anomaly, as you did kind of know what was going to happen, though as you said that didn’t make it any easier. She and Edward did have quite a bit in common, and I think they would have had a great life together. That last letter…I remember my grandfather telling my father that right before D Day (even though he wasn’t part of the invading forces – he was a corpsman attached to a medical unit) that the soldiers were told something to the effect of “if you have something to say to someone at home, now’s the time to say it.” I took that here as Edward realizing that it could be the last letter he ever wrote to his wife, so it needed to mean something. And yeah, I may write an outtake of Dotty rereading his letters, because it is something she does, though not as frequently as she did at first.

I have plans for Dotty to make sure she ends up happy in the long run. She will do some traveling, and she’ll keep up with her nursing because it does suit her. There are other plans too, but they shall be revealed in time.

:D Yup, Danny comes home with a Simpanese war bride. I can’t wait to tell that part of the story.

The clothing from this era is so lovely. It’s so elegant, and just so pretty. While hunting down CC for each era has sometimes been a bit of a pain, it’s nice to see time move forward too.

Heh, I think everyone is enjoying playing spot their Sim. It was a good idea for extras, considering I was going to need them anyway.

Looking forward to getting Danny’s chapter out so I can start playing again.

Thanks for commenting.
