Sweet mother of sweetness, it's here! The much-wanted Friends Only privacy setting! This is set at the book level, along with the other privacy levels and will affect any entries under the book. Friends Only entries will never be listed on the main page; a friend will have to have you bookmarked in order to see it.
As with any of my major updates, I ask you to wait a day or two before posting any truly sensitive data. If you'd like to help out, please tag team with your friends and test out the Friends Only privacy level. Please report anything that doesn't seem to work right. Thanks!
Right now the Friends button is only on the main user page, though I'll probably add it to the entry page at some point as well.
Time for a break. :)
UPDATE
I also modified the Bookmarks page a bit to show privacy levels and to add paging. So if you see something that's Friends Only, that means you are a friend (or I've messed something up).
UPDATE 2
I added a Friends listing page (look for My friends in the side menu on the main page). It's a quick-and-dirty version; at some point I'd like the process of adding friends to not require so much jumping around; but it will work for now. :)

Thanks much! Question: will the title of the book show to non-friends, or be invisible? In other words, will non-friends be able to see their is a book they can't read?
simple mind Kate ⋅ August 11, 2013
Nope, shouldn't show up at all for non-friends. :)

how do i change the privacy setting to my books? i seem to be running in circles. make it simple... i'm not all that smart. take care,
simple mind Silent Echo/Quiet Storm ⋅ August 12, 2013
Right now it's a book setting. So if you open your prose box (your main user page), you'll have a listing of your books and their current privacy levels. You can edit any book to change it, and any entries in that book will be affected.

okay, thanks, i finally figured it out. for some reason, i was unable to find it. perhaps, it was a 'gray' moment! take care,
