Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Hi there,

I'm hoping that someone can help me delete the other "edition" of this book? The only thing different is the cover and that cover was never released to begin with (just a placeholder until I finalized the current cover). Just to confirm, the black cover with the subtitle of "Queen of Harts Untold" is the edition that needs to be deleted.

My apologies for the trouble. I didn't realize that covers were so difficult to remove, or else I would've just left it blank. Sorry! Won't happen again!! Thanks so much!!

Gratefully yours,
Ann

A huge thank you to the librarian who removed the cover! However, that edition is still there. It's now just sadly coverless haha. Would you please remove the entire edition. There should only be one edition, with the current cover.

There is only one edition there: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Hi Rivka,

Oops. I think I got confused because the other cover still shows up under "other editions":

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Will that disappear after a certain time? I guess it's not a huge deal, eh? Just curious. Thanks again for your help!!

Ann

Yes, that section has a cache of 24-48 hours.

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments *has a "duh" moment haha*

Thank you very much, Rivka. Again, my apologies for the inconvenience :)

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Oh my goodness...

So I really, REALLY did think that would be my final cover, but then I asked around on GR, and people really hated it *headdesk* LOL

Could we delete the entire dud edition one more time please? Just to confirm, the edition with the blurry-ish grey and pink cover is the one that needs to be deleted.

Again, my most sincere apologies for the inconvenience!!!

Have any copies, including electronic ones, been sent out with this cover?

Also, a reminder: the more photos section of a book is explicitly not for cover images.

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Hello...again...Rivka *grins sheepishly*

No, I haven't and won't put out any copies with this cover. And yes, thank you for the reminder! I was only using the photos to get feedback :)

Thanks again!!

EDIT: OMGosh! I just realized that you probably meant I should not be putting ANY cover images in there at all. Sorry, my brain took a second to comprehend that. I'll delete them right away!

EDIT #2: Either I'm totally blind or you already deleted the mock covers LOL

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments One more thing *sigh* If possible, could you also change out the current cover with this slightly edited one?

I just photoshopped out some blemishes, that's all. No other changes. And thanks in advance for deleting the other edition :) You rock mountains!! :D

Done. Do you have an expected publication date?


message 12: by Annie (new) - added it

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments *hugs* Thank youssss!

Sorry, I thought I added that. Done and done :)

So it was published yesterday?


message 14: by Annie (new) - added it

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments No, just the cover was finalized yesterday.

Long story short, this started as a story I published online, chapter-by-chapter. Then my readers (small community where I pretty much know everyone personally) asked for an ebook, so I whipped up one for them on May 6th, and let them help me design the cover.

I put the original publication date as May 6th. Should I change the other too? All of the readers will be receiving a copy with the cover.

When was the online story's final installment posted?

When will the actual ebook be released?


message 16: by Annie (last edited May 27, 2016 11:38AM) (new) - added it

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Everything happened in one day. On May 6th I "released" the ebook, which had a few extra bits not included in the online version. And they've been voting, giving feedback, etc. on the cover design :)

EDIT: I feel like I'm PMing you via the forum *smirks*

But it did not include a cover image?

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Um...*awkward*...no. The idea was for them to help me with the cover. I totally wasn't supposed to do that...was I...?

They will all receive it though. Also a part of my terrible idea :(

Annie Arcane (anniearcane) | 72 comments Hey Rivka,
Just wanted to say that my lunch break is over. I'll have my phone with me, but I'm totally not ignoring you if I don't reply right away. Should the publish date just be May 6th then? Everyone knew that the cover would be finalized a bit later?
Ann

P.S. - I thought this was a clever idea. But no, it was awful haha. Never, ever doing this again *smh at myself*
P.P.S. - I have the date listed as May 6th on my site too.

EDIT: Rivka, OMG!!! Yes!!!! I made a really plain cover for the original release. I totally forgot that I used it! I shall find it when I get home in a few hours and add that as another edition (unless you recommend to not). That one should be the May6th release, if I'm not mistaken. Sorry! I'm not thinking straight at all today!!
