Katie R. (herringkr) | 6 comments Such Great Heights

The quotes from this novel are attributed to the wrong Chris Cole, and so I am trying to remove them from the other Cole and correctly quote them to author. When I try to add the new quote, it automatically goes to the other Cole. I was able to add one quote but all the others go to the wrong one. Help! This is the correct Cole for the novel I am trying to quote. http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Thanks!

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments That's because the author's name has spaces in the middle to distinguish them from other authors. The incorrect author's name needs correcting to this:
Chris^^^^Cole
(where each ^ is a space)

If you go in to edit the quote, you should be able to change the author's name to the correct one. If not, report back here.

What are the quotes so we can double check them?


Katie R. (herringkr) | 6 comments It didn't work... I added from Cole's page, and it showed up correctly, I even added the book. When I hit save it changed to the other Cole.

All of these quotes http://www.goodreads.com/author/quote... should go to Chris Cole, author of Such Great Heights. http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Thanks for the help! We'll figure this out :)

it won't work that way


Katie R. (herringkr) | 6 comments I'm aware, thank you. I'm not trying to do that, though. I just want to get the quotes to the right person!

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments when editing the quotes, it had Chris Cole Such Great Heights as the author name

Edit: All quotes have been moved.
