Fiona Valpy | 3 comments Hi! Please would it be possible to add my book to goodreads?

Title: Seven Magpies
Author: Fiona Valpy
ISBN: 978-1-84914-223-6
Publisher: Self-published / Completely Novel
Publication date: 8 November 2011
Format: Paperback and E-book

Description: Seven for a secret never to be told...
‘Seven Magpies’ deals with themes of family and fidelity, set against the backdrop of a tight-knit rural community in the Bordeaux winemaking area of France.
Gina Peplow reaches a crisis point in her life, dumped by her live-in boyfriend and grieving the loss of her beloved father. So when the opportunity arises to move to her Aunt Liz’s farmhouse in France she takes the plunge. But there she discovers that the past – and the people she thought she knew best in the world – hold secrets of their own. Will she ever know the truth? Will she ever learn to trust again? And will she ever find out whether French men are as good as French wines?

Mosca | 11 comments Hello Folks,

Today I've succeeded in manually creating a new page for the edition of "The Hearing Trumpet" by Leonora Carrington that I have recently purchased from a used book store. This edition is not previously listed on Goodreads.

I've entered and checked the Author, Title, ISBN, Publisher, Publication Date, Format, Photo, and written descriptive blurb from the back of the book.

The work that I have entered can be accessed via a Goodreads search for ISBN 1853813834.

I hope that you find my work proper and acceptable. I checked my work; but I am new at entering new editions.

At the "Other Editions" task bar; I clicked the "combine" button and recieved a message informing me that registered Librarians were required for this task.

So I am requesting your help to assist in finishing this work, checking my work, and combining this ISBN 1853813834 edition with the other published editions of this novel.

In advance: Thank you for your help. Please forgive any work of mine you may need to correct. And please contact me if my help is needed or my wrist needs slapping. :)

Mel (soireb) | 224 comments Hello Dilruba,

I added the books; you can find them here:
Paperback
ebook
Spanish Edition
Greek Edition

I took the description and the cover images from your website. Unfortunately we cannot take information from amazon; however, as the author you can provide the necessary information and we can fill it up. To add the kindle edition we need an ASIN instead of the ISBN.

All editions still need the date of publication and number of pages. In the case of the Spanish edition it also needs the format and the ISBN. I speaks Spanish so I translated the description from English.

For the Greek edition;
I don't speak/read Greek at all, but I took this from the cover on your website. Could someone that does speaks Greek please look it over?

ETA: You can claim your Author Profile HERE Just go to the bottom of the page and click on the 'Let us know' link; it can take a couple of days for the request to be approved.

Mel (soireb) | 224 comments Hello!

Added the kindle edition, you can find it here:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

If you have the cover for the kindle edition on your computer you can upload it to your personal photos and either me or another librarian can take it from there and upload it to the book.

Fixed the page number and other information for the other editions. Since kindle doesn't have an actual page number, finding the total could be a little complicated and more often that not would be an approximate.

Right now the Spanish edition will show as the default edition. The way the system works is that it will choose as a default edition whichever edition has been shelved the most (the most popular edition); in this case that is the Spanish edition. When more people shelve other editions the default one will automatically change. There is no way to personally set a particular edition as the default edition.

Let me know if you need anything else ^.^

Dilruba Ara | 7 comments Dear Mel,

Thank you so very much! How do I send the cover picture for Kindle. I can't see any button for attachment.
As for information for the other editions, I already sent them in my last mail. If you have any problem finding that- please let me know, I will resend, but I can read them on my computer.

Thank you again, Dilruba

Mel (soireb) | 224 comments Hi,

To upload the cover just go to your profile and click on your picture once. This will open you profile picture to its real size. In this page, at the top right corner (just underneath the Explore button), you'll find the 'add more photos'. You can upload the cover through there and I can upload it to the book.

Question, by last mail you mean your last comment here on the thread or did you sent me a private message? If it was the latter, I don't see one from you.
