Danielle | 2 comments I have two books listed with no cover photos --
Ten Essential Steps to Managing your Doctor: Empowering you the Patient
and
In Sickness and In Health
Cover art is available if you'd like me to send, or both are available on Amazon.
And I think I may need my author and regular homepages merged... thank you so much
Danielle

Both done. Even if the images are available on Amazon, it helps to provide links to the GR listings. Makes it easier for librarians to find things for you. :)

As for merging profiles, first you need to claim your author profile:

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Scroll down to "Is this you? Let us know." Once you've gotten confirmation that you now have access to your author profile, post to this thread to have your user profile and author profile merged:

Correction: The process of approving access to her author page will combine the author and user pages. That's NOT what that thread is for. That thread is for merging two existing author pages when one has been claimed.

Danielle | 2 comments Thank you, I'll deal with profile issues in another appropriate thread. Thank you for adding pics.

P.M.F. Johnson (pmfjohnson) | 25 comments I have two books on GoodReads that have no cover photos. The first is Desert Mage. I have a GoodReads link at:

https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/...

The Second is Disk Of Dragons. I have a GoodReads link at:

https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/...

Would you please add these cover photos to their respective books, or let me know if I've missed something and you need more info?

Thank you!

P M F Johnson

I think I may have confused things. It's fine to discuss it in this thread, but what you need to do is click the confirm link, complete the form, and wait. No need to post in another thread.

Covers must be sourced from an author site, a publisher site, WorldCat, or Amazon. Google and the various sites that search is bringing up are NOT acceptable sources of covers.

Sarah Cradit (sarahcradit) | 35 comments Hi! I have recently revamped my covers. I uploaded the new image, and would like it changed to the primary cover. Can you help? The title is St. Charles at Dusk by Sarah M. Cradit and here is the link to the new image:

Adding ACE for you now Sarah, once combined follow the instructions in message #4 HERE to make that edition Primary. Only authors can do that, but we can give some guidance if you get lost!

New edition here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Victoria,

Firstly, GR policy is to keep all covers, so instead we add an alternative-cover edition (ACE). Please see here and here for more information.

Both ACEs have now been added and can be found below:
Paperback - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Kindle - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1....

To set one of these as the default edition, you need to follow the instructions here.

Asin should be on kindle format rather than on an ebook format.
