An error occurred while sorting questions for author Suzanne G. Rogers.
Why are some of your titles published under the name Suzanne G Rogers and other titles published under the name S.G. Rogers? Was it your intent to separate your work by genre? That explanation seems reasonable and logical but in practice is not what seems to have happened.
Suzanne G. Rogers No, I was obliged to change my author name when someone else began publishing under it and readers began to get confused. As to the genres, I used to write exclusively fantasy, but author name switch happened shortly after I began to write historical romance. It was an unfortunate situation.

I work for one of Irelands largest publishing and event companies. We have recently started a book promotion part to the business. I wonder if you might like to include any of your books in a historical romance box set we are putting together. If you are interested, I would love to provide you with more information. Feel free to email me at corrine@prempub.com with any inquiries?
Suzanne G. Rogers Thank you, Corrine! I'll reply via email.

Do you know how to eliminate Goodreads problems? As the author I think only you can write Goodreads & instruct them to consolidate all titles and old posts from the S.G Rogers profile to your Suzanne G. Rogers profile. . I hope you will succeed & eliminate duplicate titles and posts and add series relationships to your new profile. Good Luck.
Suzanne G. Rogers I've been in contact with GR, and they tried to do the best they could with the constraints they have. Once a title is on someone's bookshelf, they can't simply eliminate it. They've tried to add 'writing as Suzanne G. Rogers' to those titles, to bring them under the same umbrella. I believe they've tried to consolidate my author profile, too, but I'm unsure how successful that was if you're still having problems. I apologize, John! I really didn't want to change my author name, but since confusion had arisen as to which titles were mine and which titles were the other author's, I was forced into it!

Don't you think it would be wise to ask the Goodreads librarians to consolidate the S.G. Rogers author page content into your new and current preferred author profile, Suzanne G. Rogers? It seems that it would be wise to delete your old author profile in order to eliminate reader confusion.
Suzanne G. Rogers I agree, and I've just asked the Goodreads librarians to merge the two. We'll see what they say!

Will you please add Grace Unmasked to your Goodreads Author profile page?
Suzanne G. Rogers I see it's on there, at least on this version of my author page?: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Is Suzanne G. Rogers a pseudonym? What is your attitude about their use?
Suzanne G. Rogers Actually, it's not a pseudonym. Authors use pseudonyms for various reasons, and I don't mind them at all. In my previous author name, S.G. Rogers, I used my initials because I believed it would make my fantasy literature more acceptable to boys, many of whom might not pick up a book written by a female. When it became necessary to differentiate myself from another author, I expanded the initials into my full name. Hopefully, nobody else has that one!

What time do you estimate that you allocate to the various components of writing, publishing, and marketing a book?
Suzanne G. Rogers For me, it's a full-time job. I spend more time writing than I do anything else.
