Two Author Profiles

[Lisa]

My name is Lisa Lang Blakeney and I have two issues:

1. I have two entries for my book Landslide which need to be merged

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

2. My author profile and my regular account have not merged yet because there seems to be some issue with Goodreads recognizing my name. Every time I try to claim my book (using the first url above), it says that there is a problem with the spelling of my name. My name is spelled exactly the same on my profile and author page:

Lisa Lang Blakeney

Can anyone help with this? I really want to start editing my author page, etc. but can't.

Thx

Must have been the hyphen between Lang and Blakeney of one of the two!

More likely, you are getting turned down because your book has no publication information. Does it have a publisher, a past or future publication date, a format, a cover?

[Lisa]

Yes @rivka. Should I submit the book again? OR can I add info to the existing entry?

Tell us what the information should be, and a librarian can add it.

@rivka - Information for book should be:

Book - Landslide
Author - Lisa Lang Blakeney
Publisher - Angelettie Press
Future Pub Date - August 19, 2013
Format - ebook
Cover is ready, not sure how to add it here.

Information added to book. If you add the cover to your More Photos section here on Goodreads and then link to it in this thread, I or another librarian can add it.

Oh, and does the book have an ISBN yet?

Thank you so much @rivka.
Goodreads support team converted my account into author profile now. I think I can add the cover on my own now. Thanks for all your help!
