I've just been adding as many extra authors to salmagundi as I could find (please let me know if I've left anyone out!!) so the book appears on your product page now Dd and for anyone else who is a goodreads author.

Jonathan Hill | 1599 comments Thanks Karen, but I can't see it on my page. Unless I'm missing it?

So are you, Kath! You spend many hours helping out indies with editing and proof reading, all for the love of it!

Yes, and most seem to have been written about Christianity or the history of radios...

message 362: by [deleted user] (new)

I can't work out how to change this, Jonathan. I've deleted the entry, actually copied and pasted your name from your author page - but goodreads still links to the other Jonathan Hill. The names are entered exactly the same so I suppose goodreads defaults to him first - we need the big guns to help out with this. Maybe when Elle gets back from uni we can ask her how to fix this... Sorry that I couldn't be more help!

it sometimes happens on book titles that are there on GR, but very common ones, or odd, you get lists of titles of books that aren't yours.

Ok, thanks for trying, I'm sure we'll get it sorted.
Perhaps I need a less common name, something like Eclectic Salmagundi.

Hey kewl!

Oooh look, there's an "is this you button" Wonder what happens if I press it.... Ooooh!

Guess I can create an author thread now! Bwahahahaha....


message 368: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Thank you for submitting your manuscript Mr Salmagundi. Unfortunatley it is not what we are looking for at this time, and we never publish authors with risible names.

Yours faithfully,

Big Six

message 371: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I cant see how to fix it... Do you have an authors page Jonathan?


message 373: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Hill | 1599 comments Oh, I think you've done it!
Well done and thanks! :)


message 374: by Michael (new)

Michael Brookes (technohippy) The wrong Michael Brookes is listed, you need to put 2 spaces in to get the real me :-)

I'm supposed to be a librarian, but I can't seem to edit the book details so I can't fix it myself.

Done - this must be the most edited book on goodreads!!

I found that I couldn't edit names once I'd added them, I've had to delete and readd them, which has messed up the alphabetical order but at least the correct authors are showing!

Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo) (snibborg) | 8204 comments I think you guys are doing a great job this year. Thank you to you all.

I know there has been a few issues, but nothing that cannot be quickly rectified. I'm only sorry that I wasn't available to proof read, or even contribute, this year. I was proud to contribute last year and consider it an honour to have my submission accepted. I fully understand that this is done more to promote the UKAKF, rather than individuals. Long may it reign.

Lexie Conyngham | 1297 comments Thanks, Kew, it's on my author page! And I've blogged, though it's not on Good Reads yet (another slow system, but never mind!)
