Adding book: Cold Heart Amazon import name problem [Done]

[L.J.]

I was adding my new book, Cold Heart (paperback edition) when I noticed the form requested an ASIN, so I added the ebook edition to Amazon first.

Could you please merge the automatically added Amazon edition of my book to the paperback (I completed the form after deleting the ASIN):
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The Amazon ebook version is:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

That ebook listing appears with my author name as it is on Amazon, with a space between my initials. So Goodreads thinks it's a new author --https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... -- instead of me, https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...


Thank you! (Thanks too, to Martina for explaining I should add this request in THIS forum.)

I had also asked about the cover image not appearing, but I think I just needed to wait a few minutes. So please ignore this:

I also noticed the cover image didn't get added when I completed the form for the paperback. So I resized it to a width of 700 pixels and saved the change with a comment, but the cover still doesn't seem to appear for the paperback listing. Would you mind checking that too, please, to see if I did something wrong there?

You posted in "Adding New Books & Editions" folder again. Please move it to the correct one: Book & Author Page Issues as I asked you in your previous request.

I'm just gonna do this to get it out of the queue.

Author name corrected. Please correct your name on Amazon to avoid future problems.

Title corrected. Please don't put descriptive stuff in the title. It will only be removed.

Editor removed. Not relevant on novels.

Illustrators removed, as it does not appear to be an illustrated book. If there are interior illustrations let us know.

Please heed folder names in future. If you are confused, each has a pinned post detailing what it is for.

Sorry, I thought I had posted where you told me. Maybe I was hopping between too many tabs and picked the wrong one. Mea culpa.

You can't change an author name on Amazon, so I'm not sure why you suggested that; especially since it was GR that (AFAIK) insisted on removing the space between my initials.) If it's to be corrected anywhere, it should be corrected in GR to match my name on my print and ebooks that have been "L. J. Kendall" since 2015.

Thanks for correcting the title - after investigation, I see you're referring to the title imported from Amazon automatically, where that is the norm, or recommended AFAIK. Perhaps it means in future I should add the book here first and then add it to Amazon.

The same applies to the Editor and Illustrator fields, as they're important on Amazon but not on GR.

Sorry for the wrong folder posting. I thought I'd corrected it the second time, but clearly not.

Thanks again for taking the time to fix the problems I caused.
