Which is why it's always nice to have others look at it. :-)
I think I'm stuck in beta mode now. Much to the vendor's lament. *g*
I think the pages will work fine for what you need, and then those links can be put in your link list (and maybe your bio in the profile?) and you'd be good to go.
The only other things I can think of are if you want to include ratings on the fic list, and I know some do a "date first published" notation as well.
Some readers like to glom a new to them author in date order, but as an author it's sometimes interesting to see your own writing progression.
The categories give good hints about what the rating might be, but I've seen "first time" vary widely in ratings depending on whether or not the author does a "fade to black" or "it's pornin' time!" for sex scenes. *g*
I don't know that I have all the first published dates, but I'll see what I can find. I like the idea.
Ratings! I knew I was forgetting something. :-)
I just realized I need to include my OTPs, too.
I'd probably just put the Master link in my bio. That would limit the places I'd need to maintain. Though, eventually, that might be where my Master list is maintained, anyway.
It's fun to organize computer stuff, isn't it? That's actually one thing that's working out with the part-timer. He likes organizing the shelves, which I loathe, while I like doing catalog updates and repairs, which I wouldn't let him get close enough to touch with a 10-foot pole. Balances out.
When I had to go to the workshop on how to maintain the library's website, I kept getting funny looks from the guy in charge because almost everything he was explaining, I'd already done. Including reorganizing the "flow" of page accessibility.
Everyone else was dreading that part, while I was just killing time while in a pre-migraine state and not wanting to do anything else. I sometimes become hyperfocused when I'm pre-migraine.
My best friend says it can be rilly rilly scary to witness. She can't decide if that's worse than when I'm drugged to the gills to the point of being downright giddy. *g*
I bore easily. :-)
Still, it's my stuff, so I should be the one doing it. I'll start with everything that's currently linked in my link list and then branch out to whatever I've failed to include. :-)
I didn't want to put too much into it until I got some feedback on the general layouts. ;-)
I really love having librarians on my flist. :-)
I actually do have a Masters, but am not working as a librarian. Except on my LJ recs pages. ;-)
The only thing I can think of to add is "Author's Notes." Or you might just want to include it on some fic. I use it to mention a fic was written for someone, or for a ficathon, or maybe that it was based on someone else's story or something "special" about the fic. If nothing else, it can make your list lest listish and let your personality come through a little. When everyone has lists of stuff, this (one's personality) at least sets one list apart from the others.
When I find a new writer, I generally go through their fics in one of two ways:
I read them in season order if I'm up to date on the shows and season orders are given, or if I'm not up to date and want to be able to stop before I hit spoilers. So if your stories are season-specific, please list season (but I think most of yours aren't). (You say OCD like it's a bad thing.)
If the stories aren't written for specific seasons, I usually like to read in the order they were written (as Nialla says).
And yes to ratings.
I really like that you've included the word count and the description or summary; I've seen lots of people leave this off masterlists, and I find this information very useful in deciding my priorities (if I don't have a date order or have limited time).
Unless I don't for some other reason. ;-)
But mostly, longer gets read first. ;-) And I always like some idea of what the thing's *about*. :-)
Seasons is a good point, though. Most of mine are S7, but there are some that aren't, or that span seasons.
On the other hand, I've had a number of people tell me they love being able to easily find stuff. ;-)
