Question on series

[TarnishedPenny]

Okay. I notice I have a series not listed as such. I’ve gone to the site and found the instructions. I’ve filled out the form. (Correctly, too!) (I think.). I haven’t yet sent it to the mod as I’m unsure how to list which stories it should contain. I’m sure it’s obvious, but guidance would be appreciated.

I’m a bit confused. Feel free to PM me if that would be helpful

Once it's approved, it will get a button at the top that says "Series Works". That will take you to the interface to add/remove stories.

It needs to be approved before you can add work to it. After that, it is pretty simple.

I think you can actually start adding stories before it's been approved. Basically as soon as you click "Create".

There's a joke there about a professor asking the class what the correct procedure is for a proctology exam.

Not in my experience.

I forgot to click submit on my latest series and only realised when I could not add a story to it.

EDIT:
An approved series will not show up to readers until the first story is published. Which means you can submit a series well before the first story is ready.

You can get a manual series approved before the first work publishes. You can also add works to an unapproved series quite a happily. But the series page will not be viewable until at least one of its stories is posted.

I did all of the above with Nix.

Correct. The series has to start somewhere.

I stand corrected.

Thanks, all! Done and done.
