adding my own book to Good Reads

[[deleted user]]

I'm trying to add my own book that was self published on Amazon.
When I get to the sort by title field it wants me to choose a pre-existing title.
How do I type in my own title so that I can add my book in.
Thank you!

Don't put anything in the sort-by field, it will fill by itself.

Thanks Scott
I’ll give that a try!

You did fine in adding your book, Eileen. :)

You can claim your author profile by clicking on this link to access the application. Complete the information — including selecting your books from the list provided — and then submit the application.

After the staff has completed their review, they will upgrade your current reader profile to an author account and send you an email confirmation. This might take a few business days, depending on staff workload, so please be patient.

Once your claim is processed, you will be able to make certain changes to your books, including combining different editions of the same book. You'll also have the ability to choose which edition will be the default—that is, the one that comes up in searches by title and shows on your author profile.

See The Goodreads Author Program for more information.

Fixed ISBN, and added description & cover.

Thanks Scott
That one little tidbit of advice made all the difference!
I did figure out the process and added two books this morning.
