message 1: by Lisa (new)

Lisa (elisa22) | 1 comments Can someone help me figure out how to add a book to my author page? The book is listed under an author with the same name as me but it's not her book. I'm not sure how to rectify the situation. The book is: Madame Saqui, Revolutionary Rope Dancer, and the illustrator is Rebecca Green. There is another author named Lisa Robinson and the book seems to be listed under her name. . . Thanks!

Victoria Brownlee | 6 comments Hello! Would someone please add a book to my author profile? The book already exists in the database, 'Escape to the French Farmhouse' by Victoria Brownlee.
(I think a double space is required between my first and last name to differentiate from an author with the same name.)
Many thanks! Victoria

Fallon E Lane (fallonelaneauthor) | 5 comments Playthings Volume 1 ( My Precious PeTt's, MMF , Female owner Male pet's ): An intense Collection of MMF/ MM Kink & Fetish Erotic shorts
I have been trying to add this book to my author profile but for some reason, whoever added me as an author to Goodreads added a period behind my middle initial so now I can't add or change it unless I'm a librarian or something.
On Amazon, I don't use a period after my middle initial so I guess this going to be an ongoing problem.
Can someone fix this problem? I have people searching to review and they can't find my work to review. Thank you

Re #6: Please only post requests once. If a day or two have gone by with no reply, it's fine to bump your request up by responding to your own thread. Goodreads Librarians are volunteers, and some requests may take some time to get a reply.

Fallon E Lane (fallonelaneauthor) | 5 comments This is my first time. Sorry for the inconvenience. I have no idea how this works and I hadn't heard anything back.
Thank you for fixing the problem maybe it won't happen a second time and I won't have to message anyone again.
Have a great one.

Emily | 17607 comments Any book that is in Amazon without the period after the middle initial will automatically import that way into Goodreads. You can try to beat this by entering your next book in manually, including the ASIN/ISBNs, to prevent automatic import. Otherwise we can just move it for you.

It looks like you changed your author name to capital letters, which is against policy, and also the reason why this book was not imported to your profile.

Please contact Support to have your name changed back again.
