Web Series Today: Updating the blog "author" list.

Every now and again we need to update the Web Series Today blog "author" list so that it only includes active authors. An active author is defined as someone who has posted on the blog in the past 30 days. If you have done this then there will be no change. If you have not there is a good chance you will be removed from the blog "author" list unless you make a post immediately.

Why do we update the list?

The list has to be updated because the Blogger platform only allows us a maximum of 100 blog "authors". When we reach that limit we need to "cull" inactive authors to make room for new author requests. We choose 30 days because Web Series Today "authors" are intended for community members who want to keep the community up to date with what is going on in the World of Web series on a regular basis. If an author has not posted in 30 days we can only assume that they no longer want to contribute on a regular basis.


What can you do if you are removed from the list and still want to be an author?

If you have been removed from the list but still want to participate in Web Series Today as an "author" you should send a new "author" request to [email protected] as soon as possible. The spaces that have been opened up quickly fill, but if you send it a request immediately the chances are good that you can be added back.

What if you have never been an author but want to become one? 

The mission of Web Series Today is to keep the Web series community up to date with what is going on in the World of Web series. As such, any community member that wishes to participate can do so by becoming an "author". To do so, just follow the instructions at: http://www.webseriestoday.com/2010/11/web-series-today-become-author.html.

Note that we are mostly interested in authors who will post on a regular basis. Some people think it is sufficient to make one post about their own Web series and then move on. This really does no good for either the series or the blog. So think carefully about whether you want to participate in an authentic and on going manner before signing up.
