But not just direct address. If I say 'I gave Dad a new saw for his birthday.' it's capitalized because 'Dad' is used as his name. But if I wrote 'I gave my dad ...' it would not be.
Exactly!

If mother, father, or any other address is preceded by a possessive noun or pronoun, DO NOT capitalize. My mother, your dad, his uncle Joe, etc.

Go to your Amazon author page and on the left side near the bottom you'll see a link to Author Central. From there you can edit the blurb or anything else on your author page you want.
You are awesome. That was really easy. I still don't know what happened when I copied & pasted. TYTYTY

Re: King Satin's Realm (12 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
I made a number of changes to the blurb for Skeleton Run on Amazon, because the blurb the publisher insisted on when the book was released didn't sit right with me. The changes went through right away.
How do you make those changes? Where do I go to do it?

'...will take (him) on an adventure...'
I kept reading the back of the book. It's right & I copied & pasted, so how did that get messed up?

Funny thing is I copied & pasted that into Amazon right from the back of the book & the back of the book is right. How did you fix it Nicholas?

Thanks. Hope Spamanice didn't get a refund.
ditto. Probably gave a fake credit card number too.

Perhaps it's a Sol function... HE has super powers. Said with tongue in cheek.
Sol... I have a connection request from someone called Laranice, only to find this person is not listed. How do I get rid of the notification? Thanks.
Sol is working on getting rid of the fake connection request. Turns out Laranice was a scam.

Re: Faux connection request? (20 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Sol is referring to a username, Laranice, that got deleted by him as being spam. I got a request too. In fact, I got three such requests in an hour. I denied all three, so my home page is clean.

I clicked the notice and I get the message saying I don't have any pending requests. Never got a request to accept or deny.

This happens when someone sends you a request and before you can respond, their account is deleted. I suspect this is the same person that Sol's thread is referring to, so there's nothing you can do until Sol can make this go away somehow - he is aware of the issue.
Just for info, the same thing also happens when someone replies to a review and then delete the chapter before you can view their reply - I have two 'permanent' and really annoying red buttons on my homepage that tells me I have a connection request pending and there's is a reply to one of my reviews despite having no connection request and no way of viewing a review of a chapter that has been deleted.
Hope this helps!
Janet
Thanks. I have the same thing. Never happened before. I have no clue who the person in Sol's thread is.
