Ben (benblegen) I read a book called Dickie, by Mrs. Hamilton Snyde, and I wanted to add it to the database. But the author isn't on Goodreads yet, and I wasn't sure how to add her because I'm assuming Hamilton was her husband's name. Any idea how I should go about it? Thanks.

Nenangs | 464 comments Just add the name of the author as written on the cover.

Ben (benblegen) Okay, thanks guys! I just wasn't sure about adding the "mrs".

Sandra | 31414 comments Lobstergirl found M.B. Synge. This is preferable to Mrs Hamilton Synge. It also then goes with all her other works.

I have amended it :)
