I am trying to create a function but get an error message:
f[x_] = Normal@Series[Exp[-x^2], {x, 0, 14}]
Any way to circumvent that Hold attribute?
I do not get any error message. I looks perfectly OK to me. Maybe you just have to do a clean start of your notebook.

yes , indeed, I should have cleared previous definitions.
Also you want to use a delayed assignment ( := )rather than an immediate one ( = ). Almost always this is what you'd want to do when creating a function.
f[x_] := Normal@Series[Exp[-x^2], {x, 0, 14}]
