Jan Thompson (janthompsonauthor) | 113 comments Hi - I just published a new book today on Amazon and was trying to add it to my Goodreads bookshelf when I saw that the "Jan Thompson" listed as author for my book is not me and the link does not lead to my author page. It leads to another author with the same name. What should I do?

This is my book:

This is my author page:

When you add a new book, you need to use "Jan^^Thompson" as the author in the book record, where ^^ means two spaces. Your name has has the extra space between first and last name to distinguish you from the other Jan Thompson.

Jan Thompson (janthompsonauthor) | 113 comments Thank you!

Question - This book was added to Goodreads by Amazon so the author name was already there. What to do? On Amazon I am differentiated from the other author.
