The more I get into this topic the more it seems that the problem is with our illustrious Hosted Authors. They all have links to their own web pages which I assume (I know, I know) they are responsible for maintaining. The thing is, most of their sites do not tell you whether a story is in progress, finished or ka-put.
The e-fiction page is much better since the stories listed under an author give a synopsis, length, status, etc.
Why can't the Hosted Authors get on board and accommodate their readers wishes and let us know their stories status?
