Rhys A Jones (rajonesauthor) | 11 comments Two parts to this query.

1/ I have changed my author name to avoid clashes and have editions therefore with my new name: Rhys A. Jones

2/I have a completely new edition of a book due out in October and I would like this added.


Paula wrote on a different thread:

When books are republished with a different name then it is GR policy to keep the original name in the primary author position with the new name applied as a secondary name to the appropriate books. It is possible to claim the secondary author profile if you so wish using a different email.

So, I need to claim my secondary author profile and make new cover editions for the existing books.R.A. Jones


the new covers are all in my profile photos.

BooksThe Obsidian PebbleThe DreablesThe Curse of Borage-Doone

The metadata for the Dreables and Curse of Borage-Doone stay the same.

but the metadata for the new edition of the Obsidian Pebble is:

The new metadata:
ISBN 13: 9781937053741 ISBN 10: 1937053741

Publisher: Spencer Hill Press

Many thanks in advance

Rhys A Jones (rajonesauthor) | 11 comments Thanks a million.

There is a new edition coverfor Dreables, at least I can see it here. (One often wonders if what I see on my dashboard is what others see. When you're logged on it's impossible to tell.)

if that could be done too, that would be great.
And the secondary author profile hopefully will come in due course. Is it like the normal author profile--takes a few days?

Rhys A Jones (rajonesauthor) | 11 comments Forget I said all of that. I can see it. So it's just the Dreables cover that needs sorting out. I am grateful.

Rhys A Jones (rajonesauthor) | 11 comments I presume I will be able to edit the Rhys A. Jones author profile in time?
