I'm just doing it Maggie, but I have to have an author. There's nothing on the cover to indicate author. Do you have your own copy with a name inside the cover on who prepared it, edited it, or something along those lines?


message 252: by Maggie (new)

Maggie It says it has "contributions from Dept of Veterans Affairs - writing by Dr Richard Reid and Dr John Moremon.
Australian War Memorial contribution - research and writing by Dr Peter Stanley and Nola Anderson."

The list of contents shows each of these people contributing a chapter, so maybe it could be shown as an edited work.

It also says it is jointly produced by Dept of Vet Affairs and Aust War Memorial as part of a display put on by the Australian War Memorial, so my bet is the Aust War Memorial edited it.

Dale Harcombe | 6871 comments Hi Brenda, I seem to be having a problem. I got an email telling me I had to rejoin because emails bounced. Since I did, all my books, reviews, friends and pic and everything seems to have disappeared. All that comes up is a blank page and it keeps telling me I can't comment because I am not a member of this group or that. I found this old link as my only through. Any suggestions? Dale Harcombe author of Streets on a Map among others.

Michael, booktopia says 272 pages...I checked as I'd seen that one before, and there are actually two others with the same title...one has one story, one has 2, and now yours has 3!! Very confusing, as I was going to combine them, but they're not the same!! Quite silly, naming the book the same title IMO!


message 267: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79977 comments Mod
Yes I know, they have been released as three different books, with 1 story, 2 stories and 3 stories, but all with the same title.

I created the kindle version, and changed your title to include the three stories Tash, and combined the two. There's a note on the other two versions, so I think it'll be ok the way it is now:) Thanks. Perhaps have a look and see what you think...

Hi Brenda, the ISBN for The Complete Works of William Shakespeare is :

Wordsworth editions


Thanks

This one is already in the system Jen... Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Wordsworth Royals) by William Shakespeare

There are a lot of them, that's for sure. Maybe you can search by using your ISBN when you're putting in your books, that way you'll get the correct copy/cover etc... I do that now, and unless it's not in the system, it's so much easier to get the book you own:)

The Sacrifice by Charlie Higson

There you go Gina:)


message 290: by [deleted user] (new)

Thanks you two! Sorry about my late reply but I'm not getting GR notifications.


message 291: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79977 comments Mod
Notifications are all over the place Gina!


message 292: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm wondering, I'm a GR librarian, and I've spent a fair bit of time googling authors, and adding details and photos of them on GR. I'm not that fussed, but I'm wondering why it doesn't say I'm one on my GR page? I asked to be a librarian and was approved beginning of 2012 (I think I remember that right). Anyone know? I'm a bit shy to bring it up in the group. Seems a bit petty to ask...


message 293: by Michael (new)

Michael (knowledgelost) I'm wondering if it is because you are an Author, I tried searching for other authors that might be GR librarians but can't tell. Can you edit books?


message 294: by [deleted user] (new)

Yes, allowed to edit books, and add photos and details too. It says I have librarian rights and to take them seriously, when I go to do it. I have an author friend who is also one, and it says so on her page.


message 295: by [deleted user] (new)

Strike that, Michael. Just checked her page again, and it doesn't (although I thought it once did). So you could be right about the author bit.


message 296: by Michael (new)

Michael (knowledgelost) Interesting, do you think you can link, so I can try and work out what's going on


message 297: by [deleted user] (new)

You mean my author page link?Georgina Anne Taylor

The last page I edited was Olga Masters (just added her photo and bio details.

I still have the email that said I was now a librarian saved in my inbox.

Thanks for looking in to it, Michael. :)


message 298: by Michael (new)

Michael (knowledgelost) That is weird, but then I don't see any author profiles with the librarian status, so I'm not sure.


message 299: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79977 comments Mod
I'm pretty sure it doesn't say ANY authors are librarians, even if they are. Not sure why though...


message 300: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 79977 comments Mod
Maybe Gina, you could find a thread about it in the Librarians group? Or even make your own thread and ask the question....
