Topic: Back for more

Greetings!

I recently returned as a member after a 4-year hiatus.  Due to family commitments I could not find the discipline to bang out chapter after chapter as I was able to do in the past.  Now that things have settled a bit on the homefront, I thought I'd give it another go. 

While I was away, the site has improved greatly.  It still takes some getting used to, but is far superior to what was in place in the past.   Still, there is one feature I wish existed.  Perhaps it does, but I don't know how to find it.  I'd like to be able to see where an author needs help.  Currently, when I visit an author's page I see the whole kit and kaboodle.  Is there a way to find out what he/she has posted most recently?  Is there a flag an author can put on a piece of work which prioritizes it as needing more feedback than others?  I'd like to know at a glance where people need help. 

Thanks TNBW.  I was happy to find you here when I returned.

Hello, Spazmo, welcome back. Each author has the ability to arrange their portfolio in any order they wish. The first two listed will be featured on the author's profile. One might assume that if an author has a preference for which work has the highest priority, then it would be in the order they list them. If the list is left at random - which btw you have no way of knowing unless told - then you (the reviewer) can simply make that priority list for them and yourself. Having said that, unless someone has made a specific request in the forums or otherwise, I simply choose which work grabs my attention the most and go from there. Take care. Vern

Hi Vern.  Good to see you're still here.   'Featured by Author', of course, brilliant.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  The (not so) new sites takes some getting used to.
