From what I've seen, most LJ writers tend to make a sticky-post with links to all their stories.

It's pretty simple to accomplish. You just have to make an entry with all the links and info, and then date it to a future date (June 22 2027, or something like that). That should keep it on the top of the page.

PS, the LJ FAQ has this to say about it:

# Entries at the Top of Your Journal or Entries in the Past:

1. Click the Edit link beside the Date header on the Post an Entry or Edit Journal Entries pages.
2. Assign a date and time in the future to keep entries at the top of your journal or assign a date and time in the past for archived entries (such as entries being added in from another journal).
3. Select the "Date Out of Order" option to avoid incorrect time value errors on entries you post later. The "Date Out of Order" option does not work in communities and entries with the "Date Out of Order" option will not be shown on Friends pages or in RSS/Atom data feeds.

Thanks, Gaffsie! It makes sense. Now I just have to gather all those links ...

The entry with a future date Gaffsie suggested is the best and easiest way. When you have to add new links to your stories, you just have to edit the entry. :-)

I think so. I'm going to work on it this weekend. Given all the stories, it could be a construction zone for a while! I wonder if I can find a graphic of some yellow "caution" tape!

[melian_eresseie]

I'll be glad to help you with graphic if you give me an idea about what you need. Just let me know! :-)

I'll play around with some stuff this weekend. I'll let you know if it gets too complicated for me. :-) I'm finding that I enjoy doing graphics ... of course, my subject matter is inspiring!
