Adding Second Author

[Chantal]

Hello! I'm looking to have some help adding my co-author A.M. Wright to "The Shrike & the Shadows." She tried to claim the book as hers too - but was apparently denied. Right now the book is showing that it belongs to me and a A.M Wright - but it needs to link to A.M. Wright.

Is there anyway someone can help in making this occur?

This is her Author Page. https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/9...

She doesn't have an author page, but she can claim it now if she likes.

So she told me that she tried to claim it a few days ago, and then was rejected from the author program - as there was nothing from the publisher yet. We're waiting for our publisher to announce it on their website on the 15th of August. She just reapplied and tried to claim it again 2 days ago. Is there anyway of helping her case, so that she doesn't get denied again?

[Scott]

She'd have to contact support directly (no one here can help with it) but she might as well wait till the book is announced. No point in having it sooner anyway.

Are any of these other books hers, or do we need to move them?

No, that's not her account. This is her account. https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/9...

Is it easier for me to delete her, and then have her claim it with Goodreads again?

If it's possible to remove Shrike and the Shadows from that list, because it doesn't belong to that author, or none of those books are hers.

Again that's not an author account, that's a user account. I have moved this book to a new author page, which will be the one she can claim when the time comes:

Okay! Thank you for helping. I really appreciate your help! So she just needs to claim this page?

[Scott]

Yes, she can go to that author page and click the link near the bottom that says "Is this you..."

The Adding New Books folder is for requesting the addition of books that don't yet exist on Goodreads. Moved to Book Issues.
