We need to get Juliet in August both on the Dianne Warren one. I'm not certain about the other books.


Thank you!

Indeed. Moved! I think the other books on Diane are by two (or three?) different Dianes but not by Dianne, but I'll go through an check.

Thanks. I think this - at least the Juliet in August - is something I should be able to do. Did you just edit the author and then combine?

Don't do what I just did. I edited the author of one edition and left the other editions. Cait got the other two.

Oh - I wasn't going to work on this one at all. But I've come across this very similar situation before, so I was really more wondering what the correct procedure is. (And thanks for the heads up on needing to get all editions ...)

Yup. As Banjomike said, the biggest worry is getting all of the editions. :) (There are fancier tricks to handle things for larger groups of books, but for just one with only a few editions it's pretty straightforward.)

Thanks, Cait. I'll see if I can be more independent on this.
