Kevin (kevingchapman) | 19 comments How do you display a digital badge on Goodreads? I recently received a download of a badge for being a "finalist" in a writing competition, but I can't figure out how to promote that on the book's Goodreads page. I'm sure there is some application or button, but where is the secret link? Thanks.

Paula (paulaan) | 332 comments There is no where on the book page to display badges, you could add them as an image to to your author profile information section.

You can add a line to the book description

"Finalist in xxxxxxxx"

Depending on the writing competition it might meet the awards criteria

Kevin (kevingchapman) | 19 comments Paula -- thanks so much for the reply and link. Exactly what I needed. Looks like posting awards on the book page is something that the Goodreads staff has to do for us, but I can update the book description on my own. Brilliant!
