Monika, this book was originally published by an author using the name Jade Winters. You should not alter a book record for a published book; I'm reverting your changes. Please be more careful about following the guidelines for altering book records in the future.

Jade, I'll create a second author profile for this other Jade Winters. If you find more books in the future written under that name by a different author, just let the librarian group know that those books should be moved to Jade^^Winters, where the ^^ represents two spaces between the names.

The problem is that this person hasn't published the book as Jade Winters on Amazon - it is under Tasha Stone, so why is it on here as Jade Winters?"


It was originally published under the name Jade Winters, then the author apparently chose to let that edition go out of print and issued a new edition under a new pen name. Because it was published under that name, we need to keep a record under that name -- otherwise how would readers who remember the original publication find it?
