So I searched for the author and found them listed just fine, but under Draftsomething now. So I added those and deleted the smashwords ones. Its like she had them first through Smash and then switched to Draftsomething.
I know both services offer to go to Scribd and I wonder if that author hit the button on both sites and because Scribd saw duplicates, deleted the older ones automatically. Who knows.
Its wierd sometimes how I can't find a book by title, but find it by author, sometimes I find it, then not again and later its back.
I browse Sribd by romance-most recent often to see what was added and within a day stuff that was there as recent is suddenly gone again. Poof. 
There seems to be some fluctuation going on. At least the gone books are still as place holders in the library so I can search for them again if I need to later. |
Smash usually opts us in automatically to new markets--then they send a notice and you have to go opt out. I think. I know it used to work that way although right now, I'm half-remembering that for SCRIBD...we might have had to opt in?
But if she is in both places it might have opted her in twice!
Their search is wonky. I do a search on one of my titles and sometimes it might be on the second page. Under Witch Moon is finally showing up as the third book or so when searched on using the exact title. (The ones in front of it are not the exact same title as mine, but mine still isn't first.) I think they are improving it, but it could also be a random thing. I have had better luck using the author name. But maybe that was random luck too!
