Craig Smith | 2 comments I need to have several titles attributed to me. They all appear to be listed in the GR system, just not attributed to me. They are:

The Kingdom for the Kingless (978-0975513507)
The Voice: Hearing God in the Crowd (Tough Questions: Real Answers) (978-0975513545)
The Search: How Can We Know God Exists? (978-0975513552)
The Word: Understanding & Trusting the Bible in an Age of Skepticism (978-0975513569)

Sorry if this isn't the right way to do this. I've been poking around the GR system for a while and the only other option seems to be "add a new book" which I'm afraid is looking to add the books to the system and as I said, they appear to be present in the system already...just not attributed properly

Fixed. For the record you need to write your name like this: Craig A. Smith (two spaces between the initial and last name) for the book to appear on your name. This is the way Goodreads distinguishes between different authors with the same name.

Bea Craig, all these books are listed on your profile. However, when searching by ISBN number, no dashes are needed.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Done. There is actually another Craig A. Smith, so you are Craig A. Smith with 2 spaces between A. and Smith. To be attached to you, your books need to have that particular author spacing.

Are these also yours? :
At the Cross, At the Crossroads
Your Kingdom Come
Tough Questions Real Answers How Can I Know God's Will?
Timothy's Task, Paul's Prospect

I'm not likely to be around to do these very soon if they are yours; I hope someone else notices.

While this is true, searches with the dashes will work.
