Patrice Marks | 16 comments Hi, I just added my new book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/2...

I realized I spelled the Cover designer's name wrong. I went back to edit, but the site would not let me. (Should be Ado, not Aldo).

Also, I added the cover designer and 2 editors, BUT it shows all of them as authors. Can this be fixed?

Thanks,
Patrice

that being said,i don't think cover designers are typically included in the GR contributors, but i need to double check the librarians manual

Patrice Marks | 16 comments I have another issue. My book, THE ABDUCTION OF NELLY DON. I created another cover (woman; side profile) but the old cover shows prominently when my books are listed.

Is there a way to make the new cover show first? (I know we can't delete any covers; just want the new cover front and center).

Is that possible?

See what I mean here:

Cover designers and cover artists are not included as authors on Goodreads. And for single-author works, neither are editors.

Edited book record accordingly.
