I created a new group called "writing tips & advice" to replicate the one on the old site, but the new group is not showing up, neither in My Groups nor All Groups.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Topic: points for reviews - how does it work? (0 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Seabrass mentioned in a reply to one of my reviews that we only get partial credit if we do an inline review, then the rest of the credit for a regular review.
Does anyone know if this is the case? Sol?
As far as I can tell, I'm getting full credit for inline reviews.
Thanks.

Re: How do I create a reading list in the new site? (8 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Sol, I think Judy Goodwin may be referring to the regular vs. inline reviews. Regular reviews posted are not in chronological order, but inline reviews are. If both were also chronological it would be a good workaround until a chapter-level reading list is available. I can easily tell from my posted inline reviews where I left off with other authors books, but not from posted regular reviews.
Thanks

Sol, you would know better than anyone what's causing people the most hairloss, but if you have any interim suggested workarounds for the reading list, please let us know.
Thanks!

Hi. Has anyone figured out how to manage a "reading list" with the new site yet, as we had on the old one?
Thanks.

My apologies if someone already answered my last request, but I believe I put it in an existing thread and now can't find it. I'm trying to figure out a way to mark/remember the next chapter I need to read in all of the writers I'm following. Essentially, to recreate the reading list from the old site.
Thanks.

Re: Still stumbling around (28 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
I'm not sure if anyone else has asked this yet, but I can't seem to find a way to "bookmark" chapters in other people's content. I currently have to hunt and peck through their books to find out where I left off. I'm sure there's a way to do this.
Thanks.

Hi Sol,
I think this is a good solution. I never noticed anyone adding tons of content after an initial publish. If this did occur, I suspect it was only a few individuals. Occasionally, I added a few paragraphs or so, but I think this is fair as the process of workshopping evolves. I think most of us are members to give and get feedback of stories in progress. Letting us make minor edits as we go to avoid duplicated reviews is extremely helpful.
Cheers,
Don
Generally, when I want to add a lot of new content, I re-publish so I get new reviews (including from current reviewers). Mostly, though, I save complete chapter rewrites for the book's next draft since it invariably affects the rest of the chapters that follow.
Thanks,
Dirk
