As a relatively new author I may not yet have earned my right to comment
First off you always had the right to comment, (especially on my stories...LOL), and you didn't even need to be a author.
If you check things out there are different ways to submit a story rather then a series. We can have a series, a "ordered" or "unorder" sets of stories etc etc etc. Every one of us write differently and if one wants to do a story one way or the other, so be it.
I have found submitting a lot of stories at once almost guarantees the number of views and comments on successive stories will drop like a rock, versus spacing a serial over a month or two, but to each their own choice.
I don't know about "batching" things together like you suggest, it could be done I suppose but I like this place exactly as it is.
Cheers
