The other day I sent my application for a Goodreads author profile. I had just entered the data for one of my books, and surely the system noticed that my name was the same as the author's, because only then I received the suggestion, and I honestly didn't know that authors could have different profiles from the rest of the users in Goodreads.
My application has been confirmed today. I think they emailed my last publisher (I had to put their email in the application form) and verified that I am who I claim to be.
Now I'll have to see what to do with this thing, of course. It's always good to have a profile, but I don't know how I will use it, exactly.
Have you seen any author profiles in Goodreads? Do you have one, perhaps? What do you think I should do with it?
