(KDP seems to now create books before I can get to it).

Looks like on the straggler it listed the magazine as the first author (not just as publisher) instead of listing you first as the editor like all the others.

If you can see about that not happening on the original source when they're created, maybe they won't be auto-pulled in that way here and they may auto-combine correctly. :-)

But at least they can get combined this route as well. regards.

Thanks very much. The problem is that KDP doesn't allow listing the editor first, and no one author is the principal author, so I use a fictional (sic) Metaphorosis Magazine as author. And I can't create the Goodreads entry before the KDP one, since I need the ASIN. I used to be able to get the Goodreads entry in before Amazon posted it, but apparently they've grown more efficient. Frustrating...
