Change Author Name and Combine Editions

[Lena]

Hello,

I recently changed my pen name on some of my books and would need the name and covers changed.

Please change the author name to LJ Bourne on the following listings:

E&M Investigations Lena Bourne:

The Fall (E&M Investigations Prequel) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
The Fairytale Killer (E&M Investigations Prequel) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Pretty Places: (E&M Investigations, Book 1) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Bad Roads (E&M Investigations, Book 2) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Lazy Days (E&M Investigations, Book 3) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Ever After (E&M Investigations, Book 4) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
Calm Waters (E&M Investigations, Book 5) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

And then please combine them with the following listngs (these are the primary listings now because they have the correct cover on them):

E&M Investigations LJ Bourne:

The Fall (E&M Investigations Prequel) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
The Fairytale Killer (E&M Investigations Prequel) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Pretty Places: (E&M Investigations, Book 1) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Bad Roads (E&M Investigations, Book 2) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Lazy Days (E&M Investigations, Book 3) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Ever After (E&M Investigations, Book 4) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Calm Waters (E&M Investigations, Book 5) - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Please let me know it you need more information from me. Thank you!

Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as readers want to shelve the cover of the copy they have. Therefore, instead of replacing the cover, we add an alternate-cover edition (ACE). I went ahead and added ACEs for the seven books you listed.

Furthermore, Goodreads policy is that all editions must include the name under which the book was first published as the primary author and the name on the cover as a second author. I made this change on both the ACEs and the seven new paperbacks. I corrected the titles and combined all editions.

None of this actually required a superlibrarian. Please post future requests in the "Book & Author Page Issues" folder.

Thank you so much for making all the changes! It is exactly what I needed. I'm sorry I posted in the wrong group... I was under the impression that some of the changes I needed did need a Super Librarian. It won't happen again. Thanks again for going ahead and making the changes.

You may want to claim the author profile.
