Michael Sullivan | 2 comments Hello,

I just joined goodreads and these two books are mine. How do I claim them? It looks like they have been linked to an author with the same name. How do I add my books in the future given the name issue?

Amara Tanith (aftanith) Goodreads uses spaces to differentiate between authors with the same first and last name. I've moved your two books over to an empty profile, but the first one I could get you was Michael^^^^^^Sullivan--six spaces in between the first and last name. (We have quite a few Michael Sullivans in the system!)

If in the future you add more of your books to the system, you'll need to remember to attach them to Michael^^^^^^Sullivan, or else they'll end up on the wrong profile. If you spot any more of your books on the wrong profile, just let us know and please specify that you are Michael^^^^^^Sullivan with six spaces. It'll save us a lot of hunting time. ;)

And you can claim your profile here.
