Akshat Akshat | 4 comments I am the author of the eBook - "A Calm Whisper: Art Unseen, Stories Untold". GR has given me the author status for the said eBook and i do have access to author dashboard and i can edit book details such as description, ISBN and similar things.

On the books page, for the tab "Get a Copy", under online stores, it shows only Amazon. My book is available on several other stores such as Barnes&Noble's Nook, KOBO, smashwords, diesel.

How can i add links to these stores on the page?

Kindly help...

Regards,
Akshat Singhal

First off, each user customizes what links they see (with certain exceptions, dictated by Amazon and B&N requirements for importing their data). There is no way to force every user to see the links you want them to see.

There were some issues with the B&N edition, which I have fixed. It will now link properly to B&N. And I added an edition with the ISBN showing on Lulu (and I think elsewhere), so users with those links will find them functional on that edition.

Many of the other sites don't seem to have ISBNs listed, so GR's searches won't work properly with them.


Akshat Akshat | 4 comments I have removed my book from lulu since they were not reporting my sales and i smelled scam there. Can that edition be removed? The one with the ISBN as 9781257901302

i am indeed sorry for this inconvenience.

Thanks again for helping me out.
Regards,
Akshat Singhal

Did any books get sold via Lulu?


Akshat Akshat | 4 comments 6 of my friends bought the book, the day it was released. 9th july, 2011. However, today after almost 2 months, they still show only 4 books sold when I have myself seen from my own eyes, 6 copies purchased.

The internet is today flooded with articles hinting at a possible scam in lulu. That's why I deleted my book from there.

We keep all editions of a book that were sold, regardless of whether they are still for sale.
