Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Hello Librarian,

I'm requesting that a new book record be added.

Title: Blackshear
Author: M.E. Mason
Status: Not yet published
Planned release date: TBA
Format: ebook, paperback
ISBN/ASIN: none yet

Description: Blackshear is a dark romance exploring obsession, secrets, and the cost of desire—release date to be announced.

This is my debut novel, and I need the record created so I can claim it through the Goodreads Author Program.

Thank you very much!

I still have not heard back from anyone. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to wait until I have the cover??? My book is being heavily marketed to ARC readers so kind of need to get this going please. Thanks!

I am sorry I probably missed out your request.

Thank you so much!

I just noticed my author profile is currently merged with a difference M.E.Mason who wrote Civil War Projectiles II. That book belongs to a different author with the same name. Could you please separate the author records and leave only Blackshear attached to my profile? I'm in the process of setting up my Goodreads author account. Thank you so much!

Also, my book Blackshear has multiple editions listed. The ebook is correctly attached to my author profile, but the paperback edition is not. Can you please link the paperback edition to my author page as well? ISBN for paperback:

Thank you!

Please don't jump into another author's ongoing thread.

I have moved your books to your profile. None of your books have the middle name, so there is no reason to have it on your profile. It would have helped if you'd broken those links up so that the books were discernible, and please stop putting all that descriptive text in the titles. It will be removed.

We do not remove old editions or covers, except in the case of Kindle. If that is needed, start your own thread in Book Cover Help.

Scott, I'm new here and did not mean to offend.

Hi there! Just checking back in on how I can request my cover be updated on my book?

Thank you!

Hi! So sorry for the late reply. Since you're a verified author now on Goodreads, you can actually set/edit an image of your own book.
