Books, Birthrights and Beginnings

I see you have submitted an entry for "The Mullery Sagas, volume one; Books, Birthrights and Beginnings". WE normally do not include series indicators as part of the title, except in a very few cases where the series name is an unavoidable part of the title. I also note that there seems to be some problem with the HTML in the image URL.

I have found an amazon.com entry for this book, It notes Lulu as the publisher, i assume this means that it was actually self-published using Lulu as the printer.

I am going to approve this edit, but change the title to Books, Birthrights and Beginnings with an appropriate series entry.

I presume that you are the author, from your user name. Do you have an author photo online that you would be willing for the ISFDB to link to, or one that you would be willing to upload to the ISFDB? Note that an uploaded photo of your own should be released under a creative commons license, which would mean that anyone could reuse it for any purpose free of charge.

The Mullery Sagas

I've approved your new book but made some minor changes

• Pub format - you had "paperback" - we use the code pb for these.
• ISBN - You had 978-0-9559773-0-5 - we are still using the old 10-digit ISBNs and so I converted this into ISBN 0-9559773-0-4.
• Price - you had 10.95, we use the currency symbol in front, $10.95, which we use as we also support books from Canadam, England, etc.
• I removed the note "A beautifully crafted epic fantasy adventure from an accomplished author new to this genre." - The note field is intended for additional description of things stated in the publication, such as printing numbers or other details to help distinguish various printings of a publication.

Unfortunately - the URL for the cover image did not work. I looked at http://www.mullerysagas.com/ but did not see anything that looks like the "official" cover image. Marc Kupper (talk) 20:01, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
