Separate editions? (Wrongly combined)

[Andrew]

Hi there -- I'm new to the site and I'm afraid I combined two books incorrectly:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

There should be two separate books, Rough Guide to Shakespeare and Worlds Elsewhere: Journeys Around ... (but combined editions within that).

I've tried fixing using the separate tool, but keep getting booted back to the homepage. If someone is able to help that'd be really appreciated!

Thanks

Ah, yes, it seems most authors do that at some point, not to worry. Separated.

As an author you do not have the ability to separate.

[Andrew]

Ah thanks so much, Ellie! (And for the quick response.)

I have to say I'm not totally surprised I'm not the first -- dare I say, as an ignorant newbie, the interface seems a *tiny* bit complicated? Or perhaps it's just me :)

Thanks again, really appreciated

It's not been made difficult on purpose and it does it takes some time getting used to, but I think it is worth exploring and learning.

I do understand! Thanks for your assistance, Ellie. While I have you, can I quickly ask something else? I want to update the cover images I uploaded to my new book, because the publisher just sent the new cover in. Can I do htis? It doesn't seem to allow me delete the old one -- is there any way around that? Thank you!

Covers aren't normally deleted, because people might have shelved the edition with that cover. However, I see that the book won't be published until October. Have any copies been distributed with the old cover in any way (ARCs, etc.)?

[Andrew]

Hi there, lethe -- thanks. Nope, no distribution anywhere, and I only uploaded the images today so hopefully fine? (The updates literally just arrived, sod's law.) It affects these two editions:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

(the other two edns are fine).

If it'd be possible for someone to delete I can update? Thanks so much!

#7 - Done, since no copies have been given out pre-publication and the wrong one was just uploaded today.

Huge thanks, Philip.

Thanks to everyone for replying so quickly and making me feel so welcome!
