Ah, and I see that I have messed something up all by myself! I added the Kindle editions of THE ROGUE and THE SCOUNDREL yesterday - even though I tried to add them as new editions, it appears that they've been added as new books. :-(Thanks again for your help and patience!

Solved all the series problems, and combined the kindle editions. Can't help with your re-releases.As for all books showing up on the same author pages, that isn't possible for now. The best you can do is add a link to your aliases on your profile. I believe the AKA (also known as) feature is under the way, but I believe it's tricky to implement, so that's why it won't be here in the immediate future.
For future reference when requesting help from librarians, it's incredibly helpful if you provide links to the books you need help with. You can easily do this with the add book/author link right above the comment box.
Thank you, Jan!And thanks also for telling me about the link function. I'll use it in future.

No worries, we're here to help!Goodreads will probably take a time to catch up with the caching though, but I think you should be able to see all your series here: http://www.goodreads.com/series/list/...
Just ping here if anything is missing.
The series lists look great. Thanks again for your help, Jan!c
Oops, but there are two books by the historian Claire Cross attributed to me. These two books are not mine:1. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...
2. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32...
I published the 8 romances and novella (SILENT NIGHT antho) that appear first under that name.
Thanks

Yes, thanks to whoever did it. I had to get us sorted out at Amazon, too. :-)
I'm also missing some cover images. These are mostly for the digital re-releases of previously published books. The mass market covers are here. This is the Kindle edition of THE SCOUNDREL
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
The cover is here on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Scoundrel-Rogue...
This is the Kindle edition of THE ROGUE
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
The cover is here on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Rogue-Rogues-Ra...
I'm not sure how to add these images. Is this something a librarian can do? If I can do it myself, please tell me how.
Thanks
Claire
Thanks Beth!What a fabulous helpful group!

Back again! Two of my digital re-releases (which are displayed here on Goodreads in their Kindle editions) are now available at B&N for Nook. Do these display as different editions due to format? Or should there be a link on their pages?Here's one, so you can see what I mean. It's called LOVE POTION #9 and is here in the Kindle edition:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
This is the link for the B&N edition, which just became available:
http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/love-...
ONCE UPON A KISS has a similar situation. Here's the existing Goodreads link:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...
The new B&N link is here:

Thanks!

Thanks Beth!Should I post here when this happens for other titles? I have a lot of backlist that I'm republishing digitally this year.
Thanks
c
Yep, just keep letting us know and someone will fix it :)
Another digital re-release and new edition! Here's the Kindle link, with the new cover:http://www.amazon.com/Warrior-Rogues-...
And here's the existing Goodreads listing for the mass market edition:

Thank you for linking it up!

I have a couple of issues with the listings of my books. I write under three names, and the books are neatly sorted under each name. Can I merge them all to show as my works on this one GR account? I write as Claire Delacroix, Claire Cross (only the romances are mine - there's a Claire Cross who's an historian, as well) and Deborah Cooke. I've added all of my books to my books at the user level - they're the ones without reviews.
Also, I have written a number of linked series, and not all of these are labelled correctly.
Claire Delacroix:
1. The Bride Quest 1-3 is correct.
2. The second Bride Quest is not. This could be labelled either as BQII: 1-3 or as BQ: 4-6. They are loosely linked series. But BQ II is THE COUNTESS (not currently linked) THE BEAUTY (currently incorrectly listed as BQ4) and THE TEMPTRESS.
3. The Sayerne Trilogy is missing a book. MY LADY'S CHAMPION is book #1 in this series. ENCHANTED (currently listed as #1) is in fact #2. MY LADY"S DESIRE (currently listed as #2) is #3.
4.The Unicorn Trilogy is not identified as a series. Those books are UNICORN BRIDE, PEARL BEYOND PRICE and UNICORN VENGEANCE in the #3 slot.
5. The Rogues of Ravensmuir Trilogy is not identified as a series. Those books are THE ROGUE, THE SCOUNDREL and THE WARRIOR.
6. My novella "The Ballad of Rosamunde" only available digitally should be labelled as 3.5 in The Jewels of Kinfairlie trilogy.
7. The Rose Trilogy is not labelled as such. Those books are ROMANCE OF THE ROSE, THE SORCERESS, ROARKE'S FOLLY.
8. The Moorish Series is not labelled as such. Those books are HONEYED LIES and THE MAGICIAN'S QUEST.
Claire Cross:
1. The Coxwell series is not labelled as a series. The order of the books is THIRD TIME LUCKY, DOUBLE TROUBLE, ONE MORE TIME and ALL OR NOTHING.
And finally, one last question which might be tricky. I recently re-released digital editions of three of my time travels. These were originally published under the pseudonym Claire Cross, but I re-released them as "Claire Delacroix writing as Claire Cross". Can the editions of THE MOONSTONE, LOVE POTION #9 and ONCE UPON A KISS be linked so that the reviews on the print editions flow to the new digital ones?
Thanks so much for your help!
Claire
