I don't know if this is where this should go or not, and I'll remove it if that is the case, but I was curious if there is a way to move stories between pen names? You know, without deleting them and starting over? My account is pretty old and I have stories from over a decade ago that people still enjoy. Many are inactive and have been that way for a very long time. I have been reviving a lot of these old tales, but I don't want to remove the old ones. I will just leave them, but then that clutters my page and I am reusing the titles. I have already begun the process of revival on one story before the idea of simply creating a new pen name and page hit me. (I'm not tech savvy, okay? v.v) There's already followers and such, and I feel that simply deleting it and reposting it is underhanded and cheating? Maybe that's just me? Is that a normal thing people do? Would appreciate to know if that's even a thing, maybe something the admins can do, or if I should simply go ahead and do the delete and repost? Feels dirty, though. I appreciate your time.

I believe only Lazeez can move stories among pen names. Just use the "contact" link to ask him to do it.

The other way round it, is to simply re-name your old pen-name to something more applicable. Like, from whatever the pseudonym was to "Early Woofajuana" or "Woofajuana- my early work".

That way, nothing changes, nothing needs to be moved and nothing is disturbed and everyone knows the work is yours. There are certain things Laz is unable to do, like combine stories and merge the comments for both together (I asked on the other site for that).
