Ruth Reiner | 3 comments Hi Dear Librarians,

My name is Ruth Reiner and I am the author of The Singing Widow of a Buddhist Priest"" and "Japan Forever after".

For some unknown reason, a book titled: "Deliberate Mindset: How Thinking Differently Can Help You Succeed In High-Stakes Presentations And Conversations," is listed under my author page as mine - but it isn't. Please remove it.

Moreover, I changed the title of my novel this week from "The Singing Widow of a Buddhist Priest" to "Japan Forever After," the novel is the same there was just a title change. I would like to ask if possible to publish my reviews from the previous title to the new title. If this is not possible, I would at least like to list the new title under as one of my books, as a new edition if possible.

Lastly, I want to update the book description on my book page for "Japan Forever After," but can't find how to do it.
The following is the description:

Previously published as The Singing Widow of a Buddhist Priest by Ruth Reiner, Japan Forever After is a rich, fun, spicy novel about the all-time, most impossible journey of an American woman determined to make it in Japan.

When Sarah Green discovers her destiny is to tie her life with Japan, she does everything possible to make it there. This, however, comes with a price. As she climbs up the corporate ladder in her Tokyo-based, Japanese firm, everything else falls apart. Only the singing widow of a Buddhist priest, a white Persian cat, an ex-sumo champion, and a handsome mystery man can help her mold together her scattered self into a version of the woman she truly thirsts to be.

Japan Forever After, previously titled The Singing Widow of a Buddhist Priest, is narrated in Sarah Green’s witty, determined and, at times, insecure voice. The novel is humorous yet elegant in both its descriptions of Japan and its culture. It is a must read for Japan lovers, especially for those who can enjoy light reading and never stop believing that dreams can come true.
