Jay Howard (jay_howard) | 11 comments Hello
I published this book for the group on Smashwords last Friday. I've finally found time to add it to GR with all the contributors listed, only to find it's been added already. Is it possible for me to edit the book details so that each of the contributors can claim it? I was going to list:
Jay Howard - Editor

Contributors:

Angelica Pangan
Annie Harmon
Barry Gray
Charlton Daines
Elizabeth Los
George Gould
Gloria Ng
Jaq D Hawkins
Jason Parent
Jay Howard
K.A. Krisko
Kerry Dwyer
Lara Biyuts
Mark Bell
Neel Kay
Raissa Falgui
Rohit Arora
Ryan Stone
Steve Donoso
Sylvie Nickels

Many thanks
Jay Howard

Z-squared | 8575 comments Authors added, and as is policy for GR, your name is primary (as the editor). Now it should appear on your profile. I went ahead and added the author names as well.

Wow! That is super-fast service, thank you :)
One day I must learn how to help too - pay the help I've had forward.

Jay Howard (jay_howard) | 11 comments Hello again
I've just been contacted by Jason Parent - apparently he's the one with 2 spaces, not the one with one space between first and last name. Could I prevail upon you to change that for him please?
Many thanks
Jay

Z-squared | 8575 comments fixing now. fyi, as you are the primary author, i believe you have the ability to make this change yourself. of course, librarians are happy to do it for you, but in case you don't want to wait for us to respond...

Jay Howard (jay_howard) | 11 comments Ah, another nugget of learning, now stored for future reference and use when I publish Of Words and Water 2015 :)

Nope. Primary authors can add authors, but not delete them.

Jay Howard (jay_howard) | 11 comments I've made a note for next year to ensure I get it right.
