This book is linked correct author: Beneath the Cape—The Superhero Anthology

My name has two spaces, I believe, between my first and last name. :) Anyway, my profile is below in case you need to reference the two authors. Thanks so much for helping :D

Moved both books to your profile and added Something's Gotta Give to the series: https://www.goodreads.com/series/1465...

Tabatha Stirling | 39 comments Hi, I continually have other Alex Mitchell's books added to my list and have to have them removed. How can I stop it happening? Thank you. Alex.

lethe | 16359 comments #7 This was already answered in the other thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

In future, please start a new thread, as this one is for a specific book. At the top of the folder pages, there is a link 'new topic'.


message 9: by Tabatha (new)

Tabatha Stirling | 39 comments Yes, they have been removed but I want to know how to stop it from happening again, please? Thank you.

lethe | 16359 comments Quoting from the comment I linked to: "Since you have the default Alex Mitchell author profile, all books that are imported end up on your profile. You can ask Goodreads Support to change your profile (adding spaces)."


message 11: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments The only way to stop this is to contact GR Support and ask them to move your author profile. If you do this you will then have to request your books in the future be moved to the new profile as the automatic imports will always put books on the Alex^Mitchell author profile which is your current profile.

If you are moved to a new profile, there will be more spaces between firstname and lastname. If you add books manually you will need to ensure yo add the additional spaces

Tabatha Stirling | 39 comments Ah! I see. So I have a character between Alex and Mitchell differentiating between the other Alex Mitchell's. I can't seem to find out how to contact Goodreads Support. Is there a tab that I'm missing? Thank you.
