Jimmy | 113 comments I checked the list of books for the author David A. Powell here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list... and compared to several online sites such as Amazon and emergingcivilwar.com. It appears that Goodreads has several books, including "21st-Century Gay Culture", "The Meaning of Sexual Identity in the Twenty-First Century", and "George Sand", which are actually the books of an different author with the same name. Is there a way to separate these works?

Susan Haught (goodreadscomsusanhaught) | 15 comments Good afternoon. I have a book on my profile that isn't mine. The title is Dear God. The illustrator has the same name as I do. Can you please remove this book?
Also, there is a duplicate of Under the Mistletoe--can the one with no ratings please be removed?
Thanks so much.

Ayshe | 3084 comments "Dear God" is moved to another profile.
Re the "Under the Mistletoe": one is a kindle edition and the other: a paperback, I combined them.

Renee' LaViness (renee-laviness) | 14 comments Hi,

A group of writers in Tulsa worked together to create an anthology which was released in the past few days. The group is listed as the author. How do we get the book listed on our author pages, so people can find it? Some of us are already listed on Amazon. Sure wish it was as easy to update that here on goodreads. Thanks for your help.

Michael Korleone (michaelkorleone) | 3881 comments Renee, if you can share the details of the anthology and the author profiles on GR (if present already), we can add the details :)

Renee, I found the book via your blog, and added the 3 authors listed on Amazon here as well. I also added the paperback edition.

Is there a full list of contributors somewhere?

Renee' LaViness (renee-laviness) | 14 comments Thanks, Bill. I could have added the list, but I buy the hard copies, not the ebooks, so I didn't have the full list in my hands, yet. ;)

Yes, now that you have added all of them -- thanks!

Bill or Renee, is there an official editor for the volume?
