Stella Hunter (StellaHunter) | 4 comments Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched and browsed for a while and didn't see anything related.

I've already updated my book description for this book at all vendors except Createspace, although it's taking a while to show up on each one. I was able to update the description of one of the editions on Goodreads and set the new description as the default. On a second edition of the book, I was able to select to use the default description with no problems. However, no matter what I do, 2 of the 4 editions (Kindle and Createspace) will not change to the default description. Is this because the new description doesn't show at those vendors yet? Or am I missing some other step?

Thanks!

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments There is a known problem reported in the feedback group about using the default description option. It often does not stay as the default once selected

Stella Hunter (StellaHunter) | 4 comments Oh, I didn't know that! Thank you. I'll check again in a few days.

Scott | 9059 comments Since there are problems with this function I just went ahead and copied the default to the two editions in question.

Stella Hunter (StellaHunter) | 4 comments Thanks, Paula. I'll wait a few days, then try again if it doesn't show as updated.
