    (Someone else here was asking about this, and I didn't want to butt in on their thread).

    So, say I have chapter A at the end of thread 01, and I want to link it to chapter A " at a given point in thread 02. Both chapters have content important to the story.
    What do I do?

    Do I click on "edit" for A and link it to A" directly?

    or

    Do I create an empty bridge chapter X between A and A"?

    I have a feeling the second option is what I should do if I don't want to erase the content of chapter A in thread 01, but can you elders before me confirm that my understanding is not woefully erroneous?

    Chapter links are chapter answers, so they always need to be a new chapter.

    So linking chapters never have any content.

    Thank you. Now I know why I obsessively write all my stuff in word documents long before publishing. Blimey.
