Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Your author profile to me shows Constance Hamtpton Jones

You can have a different name for the user side of the profile to the author profile name which I suspect is what you are seeing.

If you want to check, log out of goodreads and search for you author profile while not logged on

C. Hampton Jones (champtonjones) @Paula and Liam: Thank you for your quick replies. I checked it on my smartphone and obviously it leaves out my middle name. If I go to Goodreads with my computer I can see it right. I suppose it would help if I added a - between my name for smartphone use, but unfortunately that is not my authors name, so I'll leave it for what it is.

Thank you again. I've been with my author's site on Goodreads for 3 days now and it is not easy to get it all right and follow all the rules exactly but your group helped me out tremendously. The tiny setbacks of being an Indieauthor and -publisher, but I would not want it otherwise.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) | 12 comments That's fine, helping out is what we're here for.
