If this thread gets allowed, I could use some help. I have stories on my account that have different titles but are part of a completed series. That said, how do I go about making this series on my profile. Please help if/when possible. Thank you.
 
Easy-peasy! First you need to go into your Options, then My Options, then turn on "Participate in early site feature versions beta-testing."

This will let you manually create a series by going to Series (Beta), then click + New Story Series, and then fill out the series creation form. I think a moderator has to approve the series text, which might take a few days. But once they've approved the manually created series, you can add already-published stories to your series, no matter what their title is, and you'll also be able to mark new stories as part of the series when you're publishing them.

Wonderful, and thank you. I just did your step-by-step. Hopefully the mods will approve. It's just three stories of mine with different titles, but together, they complete the whole saga and would like them grouped together. Btw do you write? Also, I'd be very honored and humbled if you'd be interested in looking at my entries. If you want.

The way Lit connects between the forum-side and the story-side is weird, so there's no easy direct way to look at someone's author page without having to go to the Author Search function, type their name in, and find them.

So I strongly recommend that you make a forum signature that has a link to your author page, that will make it super easy for other people to see your work!

HAHA, well then I politely ask for your assistance how to do that as well. I did take the time to google your profile and started reading your "PennyThomspon" story.

Click on your name up near the top of the forum, then click Signature. you can put whatever you want in there, and it will show up at the bottom of each of your forum posts!

Small correction: for "a few days", read "up to three or four weeks". And make sure you've completed the submission process: it's not entirely intuitive, and I once waited for a month before realising I hadn't done it properly.

Yeah, I did the thing a day or two ago and it's still pending. I'm not hurting over it, just want it done when possible. What I am bugged about is I posted a story. A rather long story . . . and it didn't get the traction I hoped for. So I broke it down into "abridged" chapters. I had to fight to get them posted. All but one has made it to my profile. The last entry, submitted on the 20th, is still pending. All the others are up and running. Weird.
 
Your "Among Us" series? They're going up one per day. That's pretty much standard practice, so that no-one floods the "New stories" lists all at once.
