The History
So! Soak with Soap is set in a rather awkward setting in the far off place that is known as Spring County. A place that has seen all types of people from the people who have a rather large bank account and love to gossip; to the people who keep themselves to themselves, who enjoy the peace and quiet. Its rather famous for its location in fact, dating way back when it was first colonised and the settlers used it as a town to pass through when attending business in the city, with nothing significantly keeping them there, especially when better things were to be had!Now it's a town ranging from the rich and shameless to the small and nameless, with all past histories long forgotten and no one really caring to know anybody else... But things are all good in Spring County! Just because people don't necessarily wish to know everybody, doesn't mean things don't occur on a regular basis!
The drama can unfold at a very fast pace and so can the hatred! It seems as though everybody has 'beef' with either one of their neighbours for some reason or another; but thanks to the local gossip mongers the news can spread quite quickly. But its not as bad as all that... :)
Its a very nice place to live actually, and if the people of Spring Country get over themselves long enough, they actually come to find that its a lovely place, with a bedazzling history! The ancient tribes that lived there long ago left behind a lot of weary secrets and amazing artifacts that still remain protected in the local museum!
And yet, not a lot of tourists are drawn here. So the inhabitants are mainly left to their own devices with nothing to prove to anybody else - except maybe to their enemies! With the annual garden show that is hosted there, and the annual 'glorification's day' (A day to celebrate the towns in history... normally hosted in the Museum) nothing much is done about town.
But lately something stirs the air within Spring County... And things aren't all fake smiles and stupid pleasantries, things are getting down right nasty! But still- it manages to dis way the unwanted attention from outsiders and keep it's self away from view. From what once was a vast forest, is now a quaint little place full beautiful homes and gorgeous distractions; which is why celebrities hoping to keep their lives 'low-key' come here to fulfil the rest of their lives without the hassle of fame.
Spring County may not be a 'normal' town, but it is home for many. And those who come with a lot of baggage may find it hard to adjust to the way of living of keeping it all locked up. And those who find it the 'norm' just don't care about repercussions their behaviours have. But do come and visit soon!
I finally got around to checking out your blog :) I love the back story so far. It sounds like the Wisteria Lane of The Sims, from Desperate Housewives lol. I can't wait to read about the skeletons these people have under lock and key.
