My book is connected to the wrong author with the same name. How do I fix this? > Likes and Comments

My name is the same as another author and I don't know how to claim a book attached to him. What needs to be done to fix this?

Give a link to the book and librarians can fix that for you.

I'm having the same issue-- My book is attached to another Author's page. Here is the link to my book, its the only one I've published.

It doesn't look like you have an author page. You need to claim the book as described at https://www.goodreads.com/author/program

Oh okay, I see. Thankyou for the information.

I'm having a similar issue, changes to author page, listings, etc. I am Richard Sherry, a contemporary author, but on my listing of books I'm credited with Richard Sherry's A Treatise of Schemes and Tropes, which is a Renaissance book on rhetoric from 1550.

Second, I'd like to drop the initial out of my name, to be Richard Sherry, and list all my books that way.

Third, I'd like to provide a bio for the page (currently this section is blank). How do I do that?

Finally, two of my books do not have the current covers. What do I need to do to fix that?

Were you provided with information on how to edit when you became an author? If not use the 'Help' link at bottom left of each page.
I don't know if you can take the initial from your name, it would be best to ask support about that https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...
I don't see A Treatise of Schemes and Tropes on your page?

Richard, if The Long Run is yours, you'll need to retain the initial.

I'm having the same issue with my book assigned to another (deceased) author of the same name. I cannot claim my book because it was automatically assigned. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
