Re 115: It is a valid edition, so it has been combined, rather than deleted.

Entered without any information just title and author:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

These are the only publications with that story:
http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cg...

I combined with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... That seems to me to be the only logical choice.

Thank you very much. Please remove the old cover and use the new one only. Having the two covers will confuse my readers. Thank you for your assistance and patience.

If it was ever published and available it needs to stay. Goodreads tries to keep all versions of every book. I think that is great because I know if I owned a copy of the old one, I'd want to have the exact copy on my GR shelf.

You can make one book the default so it will be the one that comes up in searches: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

Dear Corrine

This version of my book was a short story. I did a complete rewrite and unpublished the initial book. It is no longer available anywhere else except as a cover on Goodreads that's why I requested for it to be removed. But since the description and everything else remains the same I agree with you that these have to stay. But the old cover has to go because it does not lead anywhere. Rather, it is confusing my readers to see the old cover and then the new cover.

Please. I don't need to have 2 covers for the same book. It is bad for branding. I'm very frustrated. Unfortunately I can't do anything on my own!

RE: 134 I moved your discussion to it's own thread. I have to leave response to more experienced librarian. I don't know what to do. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

only title of book and last name of author. I put full name and combined. Please merge: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


message 124: by Vilde (new)

Vilde (vforvilde) | 7 comments can this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and this be separated from each other https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

so that they can be merged with the correct batch of books, as both are two different short stories in the same universe

Fran (narflet) | 129 comments Please delete this placeholder edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I updated the most popular edition with the now-available information. Will add the info for a paperback edition when it becomes available. That placeholder entry is now redundant. Thanks.
