Can you send me the link to her short story? I will need that to add to the information page. Thanks!

wosedwew | 259 comments Danielle -- thanks so much for fixing the Jessie Lewis books.

It's not bad enough there are 2 Jessie Lewises but the name can also be Jesse Lewis! I was confused just writing the requests.


Carole (in Canada) (caroleincanada) | 19 comments Thank you, Danielle!

I am not sure which short story you are asking about.
Both to these stories appear to be listed correctly now.

Yes, I fixed the name but they are supposed to be short stories from an online source, I need the link to the source. Do you happen to have the link?

Got the cover added! :-)


message 59: by wosedwew (new)

wosedwew | 259 comments Danielle, it appears that both those short stories are removed from AHA. The link in my review space worked in January but now comes up blank. The author may be thinking to publish them with other short stories, or maybe just concerned about the plagiarism epidemic. She would not be the only author who is removing her work.

Okay, if you find them please let me know. It needs to be added to the book details when we can get it. :-)

Debbie (dmbrown) | 78 comments I've found a book with no GoodReads listing yet. The title is Trusting Mr. Darcy and it's by Denise O'Hara. Here's the Amazon link:

As always, thank you so much, Danielle!

I see the new book under her name, can you see it or is something else not right with the book listing?


message 66: by Sam (new)

Sam H. | 543 comments She seems to now be double listed


message 67: by Renee (new)

Renee Sam wrote: "She seems to now be double listed"

send me links from both of them and I can see what is wrong. It may be a misspelling of her name but I need to "see" what you mean.

Sam H. | 543 comments Nope, that was my bad! I seem to have looked at the page wrong. So sorry!!!

message 71: by Marlene (new)

Marlene | 80 comments I just got a free Regency book or novella, and it's not on Goodreads.

Lily for my Enemy by Laura Rollins.

Could you add the book? In fact, the author page for this author seems to be very bare bones, and even though she has many Regencies recently published, there's not even any pictures. No description, no picture. So odd.

For some reason she has her Goodreads profile as L.G. Rollins. The book is here Lily for My Enemy

She controls her profile and Amazon listing so she controls how her name is listed on both pages so while I can't change the book's author names to match her Amazon profile or they would not show on the author page she made on Goodreads.


message 73: by Marlene (last edited Mar 18, 2021 06:39PM) (new)

Marlene | 80 comments I don't know how you figured that out unless you looked closely at the covers to see how she has her name. I didn't even notice her name. Maybe GR should get rid of the other author listing, which isn't her official page?

Good job!


message 74: by wosedwew (new)

wosedwew | 259 comments Hello, Danielle,

Two things today

1. You can't judge a book by its cover, but it still needs a cover.
Dare to Refuse Such a Man needs a link to its cover.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08...

2. The Long Journey Home: A Pride & Prejudice Variation is showing only a Paperback. Can you add the Kindle option, please.

As always, thanks for your help.

Got them combined! Someone added a whole new book rather than just adding a new edition of the same book so they were not linked.

message 91: by Elin (new)

Elin Eriksen (vaarin) | 210 comments Danielle, would you please combine the unpublished version with the published version. I tried to claim the new edition but the reply (automatic) was that I could not claim a pen name under my current author name but the names are identical...

Hi Elin! I have the 2 books combined so they show up under the same title, just as different editions. I think the issue you had was because the book was not created as a new edition but a new book altogether and your author name needs an extra space (see below) between your first and last name because there is another author on Goodreads with the same name. The only way to differentiate between authors with the same name is to add an extra space between the first and last name. Not the best way to handle the situation but that is how Goodreads works, hopefully a new and better way can be found. :-)

"Elin Eriksen"


message 93: by Elin (new)

Elin Eriksen (vaarin) | 210 comments Thank you, Danielle!
I didn't know I had an extra space :) I do not know if I will be able to add it as the old edition was only on the free sites and added by me but the new one was automatically transferred from Amazon so I may need more help in June :)


message 94: by Elin (new)

Elin Eriksen (vaarin) | 210 comments I probably should explain that I will publish my next book sometime in June which is why I may need the help, lol.


message 95: by Renee (new)

Renee Elin wrote: "I probably should explain that I will publish my next book sometime in June which is why I may need the help, lol."

No worries, if you get the details early please let me know and I can add it now and once it has the ASIN or ISBN in Goodreads it shouldn't add it again because it will see the numbers and skip it, at least it does 99% of the time.


message 96: by Elin (new)

Elin Eriksen (vaarin) | 210 comments Great, I will give you the details once I have them.


message 97: by wosedwew (new)

wosedwew | 259 comments Hi Danielle,

I received a PM from Joana Starnes this morning about a GR listing for her short story at Austen Variations. Her name is misspelled. She was thinking someone was trying for a scam or something. I told her I think it was just another failure to proofread when the story was listed.

She doesn't mind if it remains on GR but "spell my name right".

Can you move this story to Joana's page for her?
An Eventful Morning

Joana has already contacted the Librarians.
Here is part of her note:
... I'm afraid I went a bit ballistic when I saw the profile. There was so much talk of plagiarism lately, so I thought there was something more sinister at play. I contacted the librarians with big words like 'fraudulent profile' and 'copyright infringement', and now I really really wish I messaged you first!!

It is possible another Librarian is already checking into this.

Anyway, I thank you and Joana thanks you too!

I got her name fixed. I think someone added it but just wasn't careful when typing the name. :-)

message 100: by Julieta (new)

Julieta | 39 comments Hi Danielle, would it be possible for you to add the print version of Cat Andrews’ “Sanctuary: Vol. 2”? Only the e-book is there. The ISBN of volume two is 978–1–7352404–4-2. Thanks very much.
