If I search on my own book, "Curse The Moon" by Lee Jackson, I come up with two entries. The first has no cover pic, shows that I am a Goodreads author, and has the subtitle "Atcho Rises." The second has the cover pic, but does not show that I am a Goodreads author, and does not include the subtitle. Can one of you wonderful librarians either instruct me how to fix that, or fix it? Thanks you ever so much.

Hi I am having the same issue. A second listing of my book appeared and I am not sure how to delete it. I appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks for your help!
Should be fixed now. Those two editions have been merged under your author profile. I also rescued the kindle edition, which had been linked to the wrong author profile. FYI, Goodreads uses extra spaces in to differentiate authors with otherwise identical names. You are Lee^^^^^Jackson, where ^ is a space. If you wish to add more editions in the future, be sure to include the extra spaces. Otherwise, if something like this happens again (seeing your books under the wrong author profile), you'll need a librarian to fix it. Just post to this group again. :)
Hi Shondreka, you have a different issue. Those are two editions of the same book -- one is a paperback and the other is a kindle. I have combined them so that they appear once on your profile and will have the same reviews/ratings attached, regardless of whether users shelve either the paperback or kindle versions.
