Cannot update status of my book

[C.]

In editing section of my book on author dashboard I normally can update status of my books. On this new book of mine it won't let me and says I need librarian status.... Why is this happening?

[Paula]

Can you get to the edit page? or are you trying to upload a new cover or something else.

The book appears linked to the same author account

I can get to the edit page but when I hit refresh Book rating stats it tells me I need librarian status. I am always doing this with my other books with no problem. Dont understand why it won't let me with this book.

Hi.

The same thing happened to me. I just tried to update "edit information" on my book and it says I can only edit metadata. Can't upload covers or pics or edit synopsis. This is occurring on all of my books on GR. Here is one link: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

this is actually occurring on my book page.

You cannot claim multiple pen-names on a single Goodreads account. If you wish to be able to edit books published under the name January Valentine, you will need to create an additional Goodreads account (with a different valid email address) and claim that author account.

I don't do under any other name but C. Shell. I have no other pen-names.

Hi Rivka. I'll create an account with my pen name. Will it automatically link?

Thank you

Hi

I created a second account. I still can't edit my books. How can I have this new account "January Valentine" linked to my books?

No, you'll need to claim it.

It worked. Thank you for your help.
