Chad Spencer (chad_spencer) | 3 comments Hi, I'm Chad Spencer. My book, The Outcasts (Possessor Wars, Book 2) does not have a cover for some reason. If you like, I can email you an image. Or you can get it from my web site for the Possessor Wars. Here's the URL: http://possessorwars.com/_Media/pwboo...

Thank you for your help.
Chad

Z-squared | 8575 comments i added the cover. i also added a series page for your books here:

https://www.goodreads.com/series/1348...

I take it you changed the series title when you re-released the first book?


message 3: by Chad (new)

Chad Spencer (chad_spencer) | 3 comments Yes, that's correct. I rebranded because there was another Children of the Sky series plus a novel called Children of the Skies. Even though I was first, I thought it was getting a bit ridiculous. If you need confirmation that I am indeed the author, I can ask the original poster (Cognisaya/David Conger) to email you a confirmation if you want.

Z-squared | 8575 comments nope, that's fine. i just wanted to make sure i had titled the series page correctly. FYI, you can set the re-released edition (with the new cover and series title) as the default edition by following the instructions here:

I am not yet a Goodreads author, so I had the person who originally added the book give it a try. We followed the directions and clicked the "edit details" link but got taken to a page about metadata. When we tried answering questions about the metadata, we found that none of it had anything to do with the default edition. Can you provide a link where we can edit this? Thanks.

Chad, librarians cannot set the default for you. You will need to be logged into your claimed profile, and then you will be able to do it.

If you need help merging your two profiles, use the Contact Us link on the Help page.


message 11: by Melaslithos (new)

Melaslithos | 1360 comments @James Done: I also added the series for you.

@Chad: only the author can set the default edition of a book. If the author is not registered on GR, than the default edition is the most shelved one. There's nothing we can do about it.

James Bisceglia | 7 comments Thank you Melaslithos.

Briana Pacheco (brianapacheco1) | 18 comments Hi, I didn't publish my book yet and I need to change the cover without getting an ACE. Here's the book:

Is that okay??


message 14: by Melaslithos (new)

Melaslithos | 1360 comments Briana, has your book ever been distributed with the old cover? ARC maybe?


message 15: by Briana (new)

Briana Pacheco (brianapacheco1) | 18 comments No, I didn't add the cover when I sent it out.


message 16: by Melaslithos (new)

Melaslithos | 1360 comments OK, done.

E.J. Wesley (EJWesley) | 4 comments Hello, all! Was hoping I could get the placeholder cover for my book updated to the actual cover, not an ACE. (The placeholder was not distributed in any form.)

Here's the book page: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Here's the cover I'd like to have it replaced with: http://www.ejwesley.com/perfectly-ern...

Appreciate the help!

E.J.

Renee Sebastian | 5 comments You are all so amazing!

I have two cover updates that I would like to please request a change to on this site:

1. Scared Shirtless: Thirteen Spooky Tales by my penname R.M. Sebastian
http://www.amazon.com/Scared-Shirtles...

2. Tesla's Revenge (Argon Adventures #1) Please update the primary image as the image for edition 4, which can be found on the GR website.

Thanks for helping me,
Renee Sebastian

#24-1 Your link is broken, please repost it. Also, can you please add the link to the GR book, to make sure I get the right one.

#24-2 It looks like the 4th edition is already the default edition. Anyway, only the author can do this. Please follow the instructions here if needed:

Here is the Amazon link to the book, Scared Shirtless:

The proportion of default picture of "Tesla's Revenge" is not the correct size. It is more squarish, while the cover of the Createspace 4th edition looks better and more professional.
Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Teslas-Revenge-...

Thanks again for any and all help. Still amazed at the kindness of others to help me. :)

For Tesla's Revenge, has it been published with the more squarish version or not?
