Jolie (joliehale) | 1 comments This book has another book's description on it by mistake, which isn't the fault of Goodreads; the publisher had it wrong on their website, too. I work for the publisher and have put the correct description up on their site. The correction should show up on this page by tomorrow: http://us.macmillan.com/howtogrowanovel

Sandra  (readingontheporch) | 269 comments It appears that the other edition of this book listed on GR has the correct information? Would you like a librarian to copy it over?

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments I removed the incorrect description, and put the description on from the author's website :)

is it okay if the descriptions don't match for both editions?
