Paul Taylor | 1 comments Hi,
I accidentally changed my book "Shadowville (Book One of The Shadoweaters)" to author name Paul Taylor, so now it's not showing up on my dashboard "Paul Andrew Taylor".
Are you able to correct this, please?
Thanks

Moved the book back to your profile and corrected the title to GR standard: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...


Александър | 3 comments The only book I wrote is "Крайпътна обител". Please remove all the rest. They are written by another person with the same name. Thank you.

Moved them to a separate profile.
Author pages are heavily cached, si it might take a bit for everything to appear correctly (cache can take a bit to resolve).

chucklesthescot | 1 comments This book is under the wrong author.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

It should be under US author Kate Morris with the rest of the apocalypse series.

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

instead of under this other Kate Morris whose author page also features a duplicate of another book by the US author (book 7)

Clive Johnson | 1 comments Good evening,

My second book, the Mirror Chamber (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...), is credited to the wrong Clive Johnson.
The author should be for Clive^^^^Johnson (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...)

ASIN: B01N2MSM64
Publisher: Author Manage Pty Ltd
Format: eBook
I have taken down my eBook on Amazon in order to relaunch the book as a paperback. https://www.clivejohnsonauthor.com/

Thanks for your help.

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #260 moved it to your profile - thanks for mentioning the spaces.
(the old version will remain on GR even if you took it down on amazon)


message 261: by Kathleen (new)

Kathleen Collins | 5 comments hey all. My new release is showing under the wrong author.

This book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Should be under me.

Also this book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Should be merged with the one under my profile as its a duplicate.

Thank you.

message 265: by Tobi (new)

Tobi (kagemaru) Hi,
the Book Time of Change is listed under Michael Chatfield but should instead be listed under Michael Chatfield and also be in the series Emerilia
Thank you


message 267: by Mark (new)

Mark Carroll | 2 comments Hi,

My memoir Reaching for the Moon: A Memoir is listed under Mark Carroll but should be listed under my account.

Thanks,
Mark Carroll

message 270: by Bethany (new)

Bethany Powell (idiosyncreant) | 2 comments I have not yet made an author profile. There are two anthologies I contributed to that were assigned to a different Bethany Powell.

Sunvault: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Ember: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Can that be changed so I can create an author profile, please? Thanks so much!

Thank you.

Could the same be done with the next book in the series please?
Book: Beyond All Expectations
Listed under: Michael Chatfield
Should be under: Michael Chatfield

The author profile of Michael Chatfield also doesnt seem to appear in the author search here with "add book/author" which could why the books get assigned to the wrong profile.


message 274: by Ismail (new)

Ismail | 2202 comments #274 book moved to the correct author and added to the series
Books assign to the wrong author because that one is the default
(The one you want to add the book to, is written like this: Michael^^Chatfield while ^= space)


message 275: by Kathleen (new)

Kathleen Collins | 5 comments Hi. Me again. My upcoming release is here

https://www.goodreads.com/search?q=mo...

Those should be combined and neither is on my profile. Please add to me! Thank you. :)

Marlys Arnold | 2 comments My book, Exhibit Design That Works #978-0971290563, is listed with an incorrect author name. (For some reason, every book I publish is initially listed wrong by Amazon. I corrected it within a day or two there, but for some reason your system hasn't updated.) Please correct this so I can claim my book. Thanks!

Re 278/279: If the issue is at Amazon's end, Goodreads Support is highly unlikely to be able to assist.


message 280: by Kit (new)

Kit Campbell (kitcampbell) | 8 comments Hello! Went to add my newest book and see that someone else has gotten there before me, but unfortunately, they added it under the wrong Kit Campbell. This is the book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... and I believe there's two spaces between Kit and Campbell in the author field to put it onto my profile (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...).
Can someone help? Thanks!

Thanks, Ismail! Hopefully we can get it figured out before my next book.

A.J. Matthews (ajmatthews) | 2 comments Hello! These three books are listed under the wrong A.J. Matthews. They should be on my profile (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...)
