I believe these two authors are the same person. The first one is their Goodreads profile, the second is the same name but with only one book. The book (Bubba and the Dead Woman) is on both profiles - I don't know if I need to write a different post to merge the books.

The second profile has different spacing after her initials.
Thanks, Mona

This GR "author" has no books listed. I did find this http://www.worldcat.org/title/eastern...
And if you agree it belongs to this author then Dina Gan can be merged with http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

both titles are fanfic. I moved a third title to her penname Jacqueline Patricks with H.G. Mewis as second author.

I merged the first two and added a link on the third. I won't merge distinctly different versions of an author like that, not when they clearly publish under both.

What makes you think those two authors are the same? They don't appear to be.

@rivka cause an hour ago or so the book "Schattenjuwel: Das Herz von Elowia" was listed at both profiles. I'am not sure, why it isn't now.

Oops. Forget that I had done that.

Even if that were still true, it would be far more likely to indicate that the book needed one of its editions edited to move it to the correct profile than that both profiles were the same person.
