Is there a way for two authors to co-author a story and show both as authors, as well as showing the story in both authors profile page?
You could probably both individually submit the story and credit each other in the foreword.
It would have to be a chapter one/two. Two people can't submit the same story.
Is there a check for that? I mean, submitting the same story from two different accounts? Seems to be the perfect solution to OP's problem....

Formally through lit? I am not sure. Problems could arise however if readers think someone is ripping someone off(I know there would be an authors note, but readers skip those sometimes.
Plus at that point they are splitting the votes views etc...in half.
If they really want shared credit create a user name and post it under that with the note it was co written.
Maybe they could combine their names.
Like we could be

Oh, yeah. Now everybody will want to partner with me so they can be an adverb.

Not everyone. JB does not like adverbs.
And I could never work with anyone with "patient" in their name.
I'm pretty sure that would be the other way around.
Patience is a virtue and I have virtually no patience.

That's not true. Go look and see how many stories have the same title with a different author. Go. Look.
But not at the same time and the story is not identical. Title is coincidence, there's hundreds of thousands of stories here.
This op wants the same story put out under the same name by two people and probably around the same time. That's altogether different.
So what do you think the database key is to a story? Go to your submission page, you can change the key to your story anytime you want. Of course you can't change it to a key that already exists.
How, when, what, where, who, doesn't matter. The stories are all keyed the same way...the title and if that title already exists a unique number.
I know it keys it differently usually with a number at the end.
But its still two different stories that just happen to share a title. Its not two of the same exact story as in content. Its two people who chose the same title and many times years apart.
The web site has given separate indexes to each story, no matter what the title is. No two stories have the same identifier in the system. Duh. Who's the moron now?
You've been off in LaLa land the whole thread, Zeb.![]()
