Michelle Knight (therealslavel) | 14 comments Hi,

I'm Michelle Knight, author of "The Companion"
ISBN 978-1-904086-38-3
Published by Fiction 4 All
http://www.fiction4all.com/books/b802...
My first book was published by Olympia Press International of the Isle of Weight in 1996, but I've never been on this site really.

I've just registered on the site because my latest book The Companion, has been reviewed ... but horror of horrors, has been attributed to the Michelle Knight who was the victim of the kidnapping and years of abuse.

The last thing we need is an erotic romance BDSM theme book to be attributed to her; she'll probably do her nut.

Because my book is already attributed, I can't claim myself as the author in order to be able to apply for Author status. So I'm hideously stuck and need help on this.

Yours sincerely,

Miss Michelle Knight

Michelle Knight (therealslavel) | 14 comments Thanks for this. Someone else attributed it. Four spaces? I'm bound to forget that. So many profiles, so many sites...

How do I find the "author claim" link on a book please? I couldn't see it easily. I'll double check the book page again to see if I can find it myself. I am having a little trouble with the colour scheme so I'll have to try and find the option to change the, "skin."

Thanks for the help.

Nan (xxmzsmilesxx) | 1167 comments I'm sorry but 4 spaces for Michelle Knight are needed for disambiguation.
You claim the author page, which will automatically attribute your books to you.
Here is the link, https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...

And I don't believe you can changing the "skin" of this site is an option on GR.

Michelle Knight (therealslavel) | 14 comments Thanks. I submitted that link a short while ago. Will I automatically be transferred to an, "author profile" once that claim is accepted please, or is there something else I have to do?


message 7: by Nan (new)

Nan (xxmzsmilesxx) | 1167 comments Yes. For more information about the GR Author Program please go here

Michelle Knight (therealslavel) | 14 comments Thanks, so I just have to wait for the claim to be accepted, then I can find my book and then click on the "published author name" at that point ... then I can go forward. Yes?


message 9: by Nan (new)

Nan (xxmzsmilesxx) | 1167 comments Well, after your profile is approved, your books should be automatically linked to your GR author profile.


message 10: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Knight (therealslavel) | 14 comments OK, I'll wait for an e-mail of approval and take it from there. Many thanks for your help.
