Solo Stories Wanted on Big List
Solo stories are too easily missed partly by the fact they are posted once, but also because many of us look through the first list of new posts where solo stories aren't posted. I often realize this when I see contest entries listed with many I hadn't known of. I check the main list 3-5 times a week or more.
Even if I miss a chapter or one part of a series; I will see the larger story posted again. My solo stories might get less reads and other stories I post.
Many good authors mainly post solo stories and they are very good at them. A sneaky way to get on is to leave the story open ended, but I would rather SOLO stories be lifted into the posting of new stories.
Please, I would like to hear from others.

Solos story listing: Default Theme
Using the default theme (set in your account) you should see the "Solos" listed right near the top of the page, above the other stories. But if you use one of the other themes (which may be better for mobile devices) the page gets simplified and the solo story listing is absent.

Wasn't aware of that
Didn't realize that the solos are not listed in some of the themes. Will try to fix that. The idea of putting them in a separate listing was to draw attention to them, not to hide them.

Damn
Trying to fix that messed everything up. I've got maybe two days of work to try to fix now.

Oh, dear, Erin! I'm sorry I
Oh, dear, Erin! I'm sorry I mentioned it. I thought it was a feature rather than a bug...

Its most fixed now
Some kind of bug in the new blocks module in Drupal. I'm going to stop working on it right now, maybe finish up tonight or tomorrow.
Then I'll look at some other way to highlight solo stories so they show up in the off brand themes.

Me neither, Thanks
Haven't tried it yet, and knowing me I could get lost :). I was not above thinking I missed something simple
