Which language are you playing the game in? Русский язык
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Reach Novelest Novelist stage of the Bestselling Author aspiration, try to publish 10 books
What happens when the bug occurs? Of the 3 means of publishing books only one works, despite there are no limitations in the requirments
What do you expect to see? Either the should be requirements to publish books in a certain way, or every way of publishing must count.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
As the description says it - either the should be requirements to publish books in a certain way, or every way of publishing must count. I lost several of my books before i figured out wich way to publish is correct.

@rostsit And which one is working ?
Found this in the old collection thread: Milestone 3: Novelest Novelist - Publish 10 Books: Submit book copy to literary digest doesn't count so that one seems to be known.
Good Luck

@crinrict You can merge the threads, I didn't manage to found the one you've mentioned. But in my case, both submit to literary and publish by oneself don't work, only submit to publisher counts.

What happens when the bug occurs? It will not count self published books... I cant ever complete this ever because it will not count self published books. It took 1, but won't give anymore out of 10.
What do you expect to see? I want to be able to complete this aspiration and have it so that self published books are counted appropriately
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.

@Tanyanadin747 Do other other published books count properly ? Is it just self-published ?
Going to merge this with existing thread.

I have tested this with:
Multiple new saved files
Newly created sims
Already created townies moved into the family lot
Uninstall and reinstall game and all packs.
This has been ongoing for at least a year and half minimum
Thanks!!
