Derek Bailey (drock5400) | 7 comments Did I do something wrong when creating the books in this series? I added the Series name and which numbered book it is when I created the titles, but none of them seem to link together.

Here is an example of what I did:
The Voidwalker Novellas: Haunted (The Voidwalker Novellas, #5)

If someone could let me know if I did something wrong or just missed a step to ensure that all eight titles link together, that would be awesome. I didn't see any options for actually creating a series like there was within the Amazon KDP menus.

I am also curious to know if/how collected editions should be linked as I have a title that is the full collection of all eight novellas in the series.

Scott | 9440 comments The titles are wrongly formatted, but that's not the issue. Only librarians can create a series. Please list the titles in order here and we can create one.

Also, if you can, edit the titles so that they read "Book Title (Series title, #)."

Derek Bailey (drock5400) | 7 comments Thank you, so if I want to create any series at all, I always need to come bug you folks?

I THINK the titles might actually be correct. I know it is unconventional (and perhaps bad form) to include the series title in the installment title, but that is actually how I have them set on Amazon. The reason being, the series is written like one continuous story with each novella being more similar to an episode in a TV show than say distinct installments within a saga or trilogy, if that makes sense? I mostly just want to stress that these are parts of a larger whole so that people know what they're getting into.

Here are the links, but if it's easier to have the titles themselves instead, just let me know and I'll paste those here instead:
