Linda David (lindzz) Hi

Have had a quick look to see if this has been covered, so excuse me if it has. I noticed the other day that a book that I have not written, but obviously by an author of the same name, has been posted to my page. Does anyone know how to remove it? I have contacted Goodreads officially, but not received an answer yet. Grateful for any and all help.

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I can do it I'm a librarian too. I just like to keep secrets

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Oh brill Jud. You're a star. :x

Linda David (lindzz) The book is 'Glorying in Tribulation'. It appeared 2 or 3 days ago.

Thanks very much!

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I just deleted the name and that has removed it from your page :o) Will maybe go back and see if I can add it again but not link it to you.

Linda David (lindzz) Hi Jud

Really sorry, but that book has reappeared under my name again - can you help?


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Hmmm. Looks like someone is trying to leech onto your success.

I suggest a polite but pointed message to the other 'author' and a message to Goodreads mods about what is happening.


Jay-me (Janet)  | 3784 comments Perhaps the book needs adding with a new author & then removing from Linda's page, there should be a way to add a second author with the same name - not sure if anyone can do it or just a librarian.

(I didn't add myself as a librarian - decided I would but must not have done it properly.)

Linda David (lindzz) Thanks, have sent an e-mail to Goodreads, hopefully they'll respond soon.

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I tried deleting and readding it but it automatically links to your author page, I don't know how to stop it doing that.

Linda David (lindzz) Thanks for trying Jud - I've e-mailed Goodreads so hopefully they'll sort it out for me. Appreciate your help.

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I hope so. It's weird that it links to you without asking you if it is your book first.
