I'm not getting the option to publish books when clicking the mailbox. It's been a really long time since I've had a sim write books, so I don't know when this bug started. I've tried deleting, resetting the mailbox with no luck. I've also noticed issues when getting my sim to continue writing a book they already have in progress. They'll go sit at the desk and then nothing happens. I have to exit out of my game completely to get it to work and it only lasts for a short period of time before the issue comes back.
