Questions/Problems in Completed Tasks

Task 30.3 option 3 asks for a book with only 4 published books in the series. The Amazon's Curse is identified as book #5"
I didn't think a short story would count. The book listed as number 5 was only printed in an anthology, and as an ebook short story. I'll move it and repost the task.

Thanks for all your hard work. This job CAN'T be easy!

Oh dear! I COMPLETELY misunderstood the task. I'll have to choose another book, I guess. I put this one into my spread sheet, but didn't include the date on the spreadsheet. That'll teach me to double check the original thread before posting....
I'm sorry. I'll choose another title... How do I fix it in the meantime? Can I substitute a different task? I was just getting ready to post one for today.

Thanks. I'll do that!

I know I'm a little late on this, but I was just checking the readerboard and think I should have two more big book tickets (putting me up to 6 total) from post 990. Could you check for me to be sure? I will also do more enters or try to teach myself bold in the future so it doesn't happen again! Thank you so much!

Please put your GR author claims with the individual books. It's much more time consuming for us to have to go back and forth between a list and later book listings when verifying, and it's more likely that one will be missed.
No need to repost, this is an FYI for future posts.
