Kathleen Johnson (scripturegirls) | 5 comments Hi Goodreads Librarian team,

I’m trying to add quotes from my books to my author profile, but only Scripture Girl appears as an option when I search for my books under the "Add a Quote" section. The other books — Healed to Heal, Something to Forgive, and Spirit Prayer — are listed on my Goodreads author profile, but they don’t show up in the quote-adding dropdown.

Could a librarian help link these books properly so I can add quotes from them? I'd really appreciate any help getting this sorted. My author profile here https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Thanks so much for your time and support!

Best, Kathleen Johnson, author of Healed to Heal

If you are having site functionality issues, contact support.

Kathleen Johnson (scripturegirls) | 5 comments Gotcha sorry, I wansn't sure if you had access to books that show up through the quotes addition menu, thought perhaps the books might have to be added to that manually or something. Just weird they would be in my profile but not show up as options when trying to add a quote from the book. Thanks anyway.

That's because there is more than one author profile on GR for Kathleen Johnson. You have the 2-space profile (2 spaces between first and last name; which is the way GR separates author profiles with the same name). In most places this isn't noticeable, but in the quote section you have to add that extra space to find your profile.

Or you could use this link: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/new?...

Two editions were not on your profile. I've moved them and combined them with the edition that was on your profile.
