Alexandra Wendt Hi there,

The publisher for my book Of Constellations and Clockwork shut down last year, so rights were returned to me, and I'll be re-releasing it in 2027. I tried to create new ebook and paperback editions with the updated cover, but the book got removed from my author page. (Specifically, the new editions aren't linked to my page, but even the old editions don't show on my profile anymore).

Also the new paperback edition pulled the ASIN from the old edition to it. Since it's not yet re-published, that ASIN is incorrect.

Here's the link:

And here is my author page that the book should show up on:
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

Thanks in advance for your assistance!
Alexandra Wendt

Scott I have moved the book back to your profile. Don't change the name again.

Alexandra Wendt Thanks, it looks like the new paperback edition still isn't there, though. And the ASIN automatically got added from the old edition; since the new edition isn't published yet, it shouldn't have one yet. Maybe that'll update on its own when it's republished?

Scott The paperback is the default shown on your page.
ASINs do not get updated. If you want us to look at a specific edition, link to it rather than referring to "old" or "new."

Alexandra Wendt This is the edition with an ASIN that it shouldn't have since it's not yet published:

Scott ASIN does not matter for a paperback. GR applies an ASIN to all book records, but it is only relevant for Kindle or Audible, which are exclusive Amazon formats. When the book is published with its ISBN it will have to be added again. In future, do not add books without an ISBN.

Alexandra Wendt That makes sense, thank you! So I'll just create the paperback version again and put in the ISBN once I have it?

Scott Yes. Then come back here and let us know the other record needs to be merged.
