Hi List,
I recently posted how the Good Reads app can be used to follow favorite
authors in order to get email notifications when they publish new works.
I've had an open ticket with Good Reads Support and asked if it were
possible to get a list of those followed authors with the app. Although the
answer is no, you can get a list of followed authors online with a browser
so I thought I'd share how to do that.
1. Log on to your Good Reads account at
https://www.goodreads.com/user/sign_in. I prefer using my Amazon account to
sign in as Amazon owns Good Reads and that just seems logical. There should
be a link to sign in using amazon, Facebook, and probably a couple of others
on this page.
2. The instructions I got from the Support rep said to Click on your
profile picture in the header at the top right-hand side of the screen and
select Friends and then to On the top right, click the green "people I'm
following" link but I'm just going to provide the following link to execute
which I think is much easier to do provided you've logged into your account
as I suggested in step 1:
https://www.goodreads.com/user/39348689/author_following.
3. I hope that link works since it appears to have a user number in it but
hopefully it will since you've already logged in under step 1.
Please let me know if these instructions take you to your followed authors.
