I am good
Thank you though


message 140: by Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 21897 comments Great, Kendra. BTW, this might help:

How do I add a link to a book, an author or a book cover?


To add a link to the book title: Above the box where you type your comments, click on the add book/author link. In the box that pops up, type the book title, then click on search. When you locate your book on the list, click on add, and voila! The link will be added to the bottom of your message :)

To add the book cover, the process is almost identical. The only difference is this: After you click on the add book/author link, click on the circle next to cover at the bottom of search box. Then continue as above :)
To add a link to the book's author, follow the steps to create a link to the book, but select author at the top of the search box, instead of book.
