message 1: by C.S. (new)

C.S. Smith This happens every time I get ready to publish another book. I create the book on Amazon, then before I can manually add it to Goodreads, someone has created the profile and it's not linked to my author name. So, I have two requests: Can someone please link this book to my account: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... so that I don't have to create a duplicate to fill in the information on the book, and can we find a way to keep this from happening every single time I publish a book? Thank you.

Greg Done - moved to your profile; also added description and added it to the series.

FYI: Amazon automatically imported it (they own Goodreads). There is no way to stop that.

Because you do not have the default profile (there is another C.S. Smith) this will happen each time you have a new book come out.

Please edit the title / subject of your post and add [Done] so other librarians know it is complete.
