If it's anything like the pinned megas you just give a little writeup on the topic (in this case promo copy for your books ig). Then people are free to discuss or just post about random unrelated stuff as is the megathread norm.
You should totally do it so there's precedent if I ever work up the courage to post my writing here
If you wanted to do a daily megathread, just let Quimby know in the planning thread. You would just post it at the usual time and make the nerd call comment once it's posted.
I always figured you had to set it up with the site mods, contact them and be like "ey i've got a topic for megathread" but I have no clue to be honest

Copy Content from Here for the footer of the OP. Use the little paper button in the same row as the edit/report buttons to display the markdown formatting for your copy-paste needs. If on mobile you need to switch your browser to desktop mode for it to show up.
Then you write the 1st comment in the thread, usually with something silly at the top. Then you paste in the markdown of everyone's names from Quimby's template, hit send, and then someone will reply "First!"
The nerdcall comment triggers admins to wake up and pin the post. Sometimes it takes a little bit but they get there eventually if you post it between 12am and 4am UTC.

I've literally never had my threads wrecked. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Try making one about uh...pizza? Something inconsequential as your first one. Throw a gorbachev joke in there.
