+I'm setting up a blog for NaNoWriMo and other story-writing, which means long posts every day. I want to have excerpts on the front page, which link to the full length story posts. I also want a dedicated page for each story which inlines the story in full and in chronological order. I can use the "more" directive to achieve this effect on the front page but then it spoils the story page. My solution was to add a pages= parameter to the more directive to make it more selective.

+I'm not entirely happy with the design, since I would rather put this information in the inline directive instead of in every story post. Unfortunately I found no way to pass parameters from the inline directive to the inlined page.
