Laura Huttenbach | 3 comments Hello there! I'd love your help. I just created my author's page (Laura Lee Huttenbach), and I now see that I already had an author's page for my first book. Could you please add "The Boy is Gone" to my new author page. (My second book is "Running with Raven.") I am the same person, but my middle initial is making it tricky. Thanks very much for your assistance,

Laura Lee Huttenbach

Not unless Laura wants her claimed profile to include the middle initial. If she does not, then the claimed name will need to be added as a second author on that book.

The book is on your profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...
It was already moved there by a GR employee.

Please don't use a thread that is linked to a specific book (see topic header) for other requests.

It is on my author list it IS NOT on my author dashboard. This is my first request, sorry for adding a link.

No one can see your dashboard except you.
For the giveaway, you should be able to use either the paperback isbn (9781544099712) or the GR-ID for the paperback (34767025).

For other questions concerning either your dashboard or a giveaway, please contact GR Support, as both are not something librarians can help with.

Thank you.

Laura Huttenbach | 3 comments Thanks for your help! I'm still a little confused. I'd like to merge the two under "Laura Lee Huttenbach." How do I do that? Will that mess anything up? Thanks again.

Since you want to keep the Laura Lee Huttenbach profile, what we'll do is add that name as the secondary author on The Boy Is Gone: Conversations with a Mau Mau General since it was originally published under Laura Lee P. Huttenbach. Done.
