When was the cover changed, and for which editions?
It was changed upon/before launch. Late July.There should only be one edition.
Hello—happy Thanksgiving. Can someone address this? :)
Hi. What do I need to do to get the cover updated?
Hello again. Not to be a noodge, but... :)
If nothing was issued with the existing image the cover can be changed. This is not something you can do yourself, you will need librarian help.If you provide a link to a correct and acceptable source for the cover a librarian will change it.
Hi Martin. The book was *only* released with this cover:https://journeypress.com/titles/kitra...
The cover currently on Goodreads is the ARC cover.
Thank you.
For Goodreads we retain the ARC cover also. You can add the new cover as an alternate cover edition.
I'd rather there not be two editions floating around Goodreads as that will lead to confusion and split ratings. In fact, I vaguely recall there being two editions of Hyvilma on Goodreads in the summer, and I asked for them to be consolidated (which was done).So how can we get one version of the book with the proper cover?
It will still be one book with one set of ratings, there are already three editions there. As author you can choose which edition is 'default' and that will determine which cover shows on your author page and searches.You might find this useful https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
I see "Delete Photo" as an option, but I do not see Add an Alternate Cover Edition. What shall I do?
The instructions are in that 'delete photo' section, and it gives a link to more information on ACEs
Oh hell. I made a new one, but I think I messed it up. I'm going to need some handholding. Thanks.
I removed the one you created.Is it just the ebook you want to add alternate cover edition for?
Both should have the proper cover. The one currently at https://journeypress.com/titles/kitra...Thanks.
You say 'both' but there are three editionshttps://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Which of these had ARCs with the old cover?
This is why it is so much easier for authors to do things themselves. For librarians to make changes we need to know lots of details, and we need sources to confirm.
It is difficult to tell. The second one appears to be the e-book, but the page count is wrong. The second one has the physical book isbn. The first one has no isbn.I would guess that the ARC would be associated with the second one. As long as we can make sure the proper cover is the one folks coming to the site see, I'm happy. :)
As the author surely you know what format/s were issued for ARCsThe formats are Kindle, ebook, and paperback
Martin, I mean I didn't know what Goodreads edition went with which entry.We produced e-ARCs and printed about 20 physical ARCs.
I have added alternate cover edition for paperback https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Were the e-ARCs Kindle or ebook?
They were e-books. We don't send out Kindle ARCs.Thank you for adding the right cover! I appreciate the hand-holding.
What is the procedure for making that the default cover that shows up when someone searches for Hyvilma?
Thanks. I have now updated the Kindle edition.Now a difficulty with the ebook - does it have ISBN? I can't find details at publisher site.
You can set default edition as outlined at https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
Hello! Ebook ISBN is the same as the Kindle ISBN: 978-1-951320-25-6
And I finally got it to work, thanks :) And now I see where to add Alternate Cover editions at last...Thank you for your patience and help!
The ISBN will need to be moved from Kindle to ebook before the alternate cover edition can be added.This can only be done by Goodreads staff, please can you ask them at https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...
It shouldn't be necessary at this point. If you search "Hyvilma", the proper cover version is the one that comes up.
If you want the cover added to the ebook it will need the ISBN moved.
Thank you!
