Lea Tassie | 2 comments I thought I was reasonably computer-literate but I’ve messed up my author page beyond belief, aided by what I suspect are glitches in the Goodreads software. I uploaded details for my 3 latest books, which weren’t listed, then details of my 7 ebooks. Although the ebooks have their own unique ISBN numbers, the system tended to replace the information on the paperback page with the information on the ebook page, thus resulting in two listings of the same ebook, or two listings of the same paperback. I tried to correct all of these, but was unsuccessful.

The next frustration was combining paperback and ebook editions. The instructions did not tell me that clicking on all the books I wanted to combine at once would result in them being combined under one book title! So I ended up with five books hidden under one title When I realized what had happened, I tried to separate the editions and was told that only a librarian was allowed to do that. So I’ve given up trying to correct my page and must ask for help.

(1) Under the title Cats Under Cover are hidden these four paperbacks plus the ebook editions: Siamese Summers
Green Blood Rising
Double Image
A Clear Eye

(2) Under the title Cats Under Cover are hidden TWO copies of the Harvest ebook.

(3) Under the title Cats Under Cover is another copy of the Cats Under Cover paperback, rather than the ebook, which has disappeared entirely.

(4) Under the title Cats Under Cover is a second copy of the Cats in Clover ebook, which I actually did manage to combine with the Cats in Clover paperback.

(5) TWO copies of Death of a Vestal Virgin appear on my page, and I didn’t try to mess with that one at all, since there’s no matching ebook.

I would very much appreciate any help you can give. I’m tired of banging my head on my desk!

Thanks!

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments OK, so I separated all of the works into their proper editions. I also went ahead and created two series for you: One being Adrianna Island, and the other being Green Blood. Can you check both of those to make sure they're correct? Are there any other series that need to be made? Also I only see one edition of Death of a Vestal Virgin. Where is the other one?

Lea Tassie | 2 comments Thank you VERY much! It all looks absolutely fine, including the series creation. There are no other series. And this morning, there WERE two copies of Death of A Vestal Virgin, but now there aren't. I don't know why; maybe magic. :)

Thanks again. It is such a relief to have that sorted.
