Nicky Wheeler-Nicholson | 3 comments I am the granddaughter of a deceased author and a new biography is coming out about him in the next year or so. I set up an author's page but I can't seem to access it now. Where do I find it and how do I add to his page. Thanks.

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6993 comments I think this is the author's profile you're looking for?

www.goodreads.com/author/show/2401274...

You can edit the data on the profile by clicking 'edit data'.

To add new books to it you can use this page:
www.goodreads.com/book/new

However, if you don't feel comfortable doing so, any librarian will be happy to add a book for you. Just create a new thread for each request with the title of the requested book as the subject and provide following data:

* Title
* Author(s) name(s)
* ISBN (or ASIN)
* Publisher
* Publication date
* Number of pages
* Format
* Description
* Edition language
* Link to cover on a NON-BOOKSELLER site, such as a publisher site, an author site, etc. No B&N or other bookseller links can be used as sources for covers or other book data, with the (recently-changed) exception of Amazon and its subsidiaries.
