Yes, you heard me correctly – Add A New Story is back online. It has been long time in coming and, be warned, it is still in beta status – post and edit at your own risk – but it is back online. As usual, if you find any strange behavior in the forms or the posting, please report the bug at the forums.

Please note, stories are no longer designed to function the way they once did. There have been many changes – the most obvious of which is that you no longer submit your first chapter in the Add A Story area as you did before. Please enter Edit/Delete Stories and Add A Chapter to your story. Periodically, stories with no listed chapters will be removed by the maintenance script. Also note, stories without chapters will not appear on your author page.

This was mentioned yesterday in the Edit Stories post, but it carries repeating – you will notice significant changes to the form and functionality. Please note that incorrect rating/warning combinations will no longer be permitted by the software. To learn more about these combinations, please check the general repository of all HPFF knowledge – the site rules documentation. Also note, the genres, ships, eras, and all sorts of other fun classifications have been added in as well. If you have any questions on what they mean, please consult the FAQ’s
