Kristin Hamblin (authorkristinlhamblin) | 16 comments Please create a new series called Fated Born and link these two books:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Also, is this really the only way to accomplish this? I tried to do it myself but it said I wasn't authorized.

Thank you!

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7859 comments Correct; only librarians can add/edit series.

New series added: https://www.goodreads.com/series/3524...

Thanks for the links to the books! :)

Dobby, somehow I'm no longer listed as the author of these books. Can you transfer them so my account shows as the author instead of the new unclaimed and unpictured account with my name?
Thank you.

Also, how do I update the genre that shows on them?

Abcdarian | 26579 comments The mistake was removing the period from the author name. That seems to have messed up the whole profile, leaving you with a user profile. You will have to contact Support https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta... and have them straighten things out.

As to genres, those are added by readers not Goodreads.

Fixed. (For future reference, if a Librarian edited the period back on each book, that would have fixed things as well, once the cache cleared.)

Please note that on Goodreads, author names that include initials have a dot after each one.

Kristin Hamblin (authorkristinlhamblin) | 16 comments it's me again, back with another problem. Sorry about that.

I have a book that is listed in two places:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

The first link is already connected to my series, with readers marking it on their TBR list.
The second link is probably generating from Amazon. It has the temporary cover image, but not the temporary blurb.

Can someone combine these in a way where I don't lose the people who've already marked it as "to read"? And doesn't lose the link to Amazon or the tie to my established series?

Thank you!!!

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7859 comments This was again due to the lack of a period after the initial in your name. I've fixed the issue, combined the editions, and merged the duplicate. It might take a while to clear the cache.

Kristin Hamblin (authorkristinlhamblin) | 16 comments On book 2, Fated Reign, how do I update the cover image? It doesn’t match the Amazon listing. Thanks!
