Random quote: In the case of romances what I found distressing was not so much that they are read only by women, but that these are the books containing the sentences that most rapidy make me want to vomit. - Nomi Szcsi (The Finno-Ugrian Vampire)

Location: Richmond, California		Can you add Kaitlin Kiernan's The Drowned Girl? I had to read it for a book club and, although I detested it, it's a fantasy book by a woman author I hadn't read so I'd like to at least get credit for it here.

Location: SC, USA		Hey Carla, It is The Drowning Girl, not Drowned, which is probably why you could not find it. Here's the link https://www.worldswithoutend.com/novel.asp?id=5079

Sorry, I can never make my links real links.

Location: Dallas, Texas		Hello everyone.  You may haqve noticed a drop off in new books being added to the site for the challenge.  Part of that was my vacation (I was gone for over a week and came back exhausted.) and part is that my home computer has gone to drek.  I'm trying to get that worked out now and should either be fixed or replaced by the end of the weekend.  Wish me luck.  Thanks for your patience.  I haven't given up and I haven't forgotten about you.

So, we haven't been idle on the books but I have neglected to post some of the new additions here.  Happy reading!

Location: Austria		I noticed you have Frances Hardinge's book Fly Trap in the database, part two of a series, but part one - Fly by Night- is missing. I just read it and will put up a WoGF review whenever the book is added.

P.S.: No stress about adding the book, I've got more than enough other women writers lined up for May.

Location: Richmond, California		Both Seanen O'Guire and her pseudonym Mira Grant show up in Booktracker but she is NOT showing up in the All Women Authors section. When I added her book Feed to my shelf as read, it gave me the option of counting it towards my WofGF page so I checked that option but there is no change on my WofGF page. Suggestions?

She is on there (because I found her there to add her to my list, which I selected wholly through random generation), but you've misspelt her name Seanan McGuire.

Location: Richmond, California		I knew I'd get that name wrong (didn't have it in front of me) but, as I said, I found her and chose the books I'd read of hers and so on - I did it through random generation also. They're on my bookshelf but won't show up for WoGF. When I check that box, it just reverts to unchecked every time I save it. I'll just keep trying, assuming it's some kind of temporary glitch.

Location: Richmond, California		Yep... left it overnight and now it works. I see, too, that I have to write the review before it will show up as read on my WoGF page. Which is fine. I still want to do Stiefvater's Scorpio Races but I haven't been able to find it here.

I'm not sure what happened overnight that it works now but I'll take that as a win.  Your don't have to write any reviews to get your books to show up on your list.  All you have to do is tag that author for your challenge from the All Women Authors page, which you have to do first, then tag one of her books as read AND check the box that says "Apply to my WoGF".

I've been testing the system and it's working as it should for me on all my browsers.  If you are still having problems I'll need to get some details about your set up so I can try and replicate the issue.

I've got Maggie Stiefvater on my list of updates.

Location: Richmond, California		Danke! I am on a Mac using Lion (OS X Lion 7.5) and I've been using Safari as my browser. I may try to switch over to Firefox and see if that helps at all. I only thought I had to write the review for it to show up because that's the only thing I did differently before a certain one showed up. I'm thinking that it's just something I shouldn't worry about and just let the books show up when they show up. No need to look into it any further - I should have a better experience with a different browser. I also have a PC so I could check what happens if I come in using Windows instead of Mac OS.

Thanks for letting me know you've got Stiefvater on your list. I won't worry about that either. Sometimes I get a little obsessed with getting my ducks all in a row.
