Problems with Goodreads

My author's page lists three of my books (Striking Out; Atlanta Blues; Six of One, Half Dozen of Another) -- BUT not my latest: A Majority of One, and I can't see how to get it included. I can't enter it because it is already in the database -- BUT after telling you that, Goodreads leaves you high and dry; it doesn't tell you how to get said book onto your page. I've tried everything I can think o Read more of this blog post »

Robert’s Quotes

“Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.”
― Henry Ford

“The few own the many because they possess the means of livelihood of all ... The country is governed for the richest, for the corporations, the bankers, the land speculators, and for the exploiters of labor. The majority of mankind are working people. So long as their fair demands - the ownership and control of their livelihoods - are set at naught, we can have neither men's rights nor women's rights. The majority of mankind is ground down by industrial oppression in order that the small remnant may live in ease.”
― Helen Keller, Rebel Lives: Helen Keller
