I would love to do this as a solo! (There - my karma says that saying that will almost guarantee you are flooded with readers.) And if not, I’ll keep adding sections until you are filled. I enjoy this author.

Sounds good to me! I will move us over to Going Solo!


Have you done a solo project yet? If you have not, we need to get you access to the MW. Let me know either way.

Amazing! I haven’t. How exciting! Point me in the right direction and I’ll learn all the things. You said “us.” So you’ll stay on? (Please!)

That's what I figured! So, you now have some homework to do!

Check out this doc. These are the instructions for getting into the workflow system, which powers the MW, for the first time. As a soloist, you are your own BC, so you will have to paste your links into the correct spot in the MW. One thing you will need to do right now is to make sure you are not logged into the uploader. Once you do that, then go ahead and follow the instructions so that you can change your password once you get into the MW. After that, let me know if you have gotten in or not. Usually I can solve problems pretty quickly, if you have any.

Of course I will stay on! I am your MC and your DPL! :D

And, you have "created" a new problem for me! I need to find another book for a group project! Oh darn! Oh, what shall I post now? :hmm:

Sorry to cause you trouble :lol:

Everything looks clearly explained. I’ll have Thursday to get the login change made and view the magic window screens.

I plan to take a few days to complete a prior commitment made in the dramatic works forum, then will begin this charming book.

Pretty sure I have followed all instructions, and have seen the Workflow screen. Yet, when I attempt login through BC admin link under this project's MW, it says "you do not have access to this page." What's next?

Make sure you are not logged into the uploader. That normally causes problems.

ETA: Nope, that is not the problem. I thought that I had already put you in as BC, but I did not. Try it now, it should work.
