Triond Pages

So I started uploading work on Triond - it's great because it'll publish anything, but I've run into a problem. They set up their home page so you are directed to the User pages of "popular" or "prolific" writers, but they don't give any access to User pages they haven't set up. So if I want to direct people to my work I have to give them each individual URL for the pieces I've published, rather than just directing them to my hub.
Furthermore, I can't seem to find a simple way to search for my work, because my Username isn't used as a tag for any of my pages. Anybody that uses Triond (especially those that are "prolific") think they can help me out?

I did a search of my tag name on several search engines. I think it was on Yahoo that every single one of my Triond articles came up as search results.
As for getting people to see my work, I have the URLs in my signature in my email and when I publish something new I send out an email with the URL. I will also try and post it on message boards without making it look like spam... just kind of slide it into the conversation. LOL!
I find I have to look at my own work in order to look at someone else's work. There should be a way for us to look around the site without having to open one of our own works first. That seems silly to me. And I still haven't figured out how to make a friends list.

Hey Pat, never mind, figured it out. Thanks. What kinds of stuff do you publish on Triond?

I have written poetry and short stories. I have also written a few articles because I found those are read more than anything else. I am not much of an article writer, more of a story teller, but find I am getting the hang of it. I am published on Triond under my writing name: Mary Patricia Bird.
