Merge profiles

[[deleted user]]

I hope I'm doing this right. Previously, I wrote under two different names and had two different profiles, but I recently put my books under one name - but I still have two profiles. I want to merge them. My main profile is the one above under 'this topic is about' - Cindy Larie (Cowles). My other profile is the one I'm writing this question with - Cindy Larie (Cowles. - only one paranthasis, not two. Could you please merge the books and info from the profile Cindy Larie (Cowles into the profile Cindy Larie (Cowles)
To clarify...the profile I want to keep is the one listed and showing under 'This topic is about'. If you could put the books and reviews, etc, from the other one into that one I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

That one is the one I'm wanting to merge into this one. This is my main author page, but that one also has books by me. If I can combine both profiles into this one then I can start adding my new book covers with my author name to each book and keep them all together. Thanks!

Goodreads does not merge distinct pen names, so we cannot merge AnnaBelle Ashley into your other name, and all books published under AnnaBelle Ashley will continue to have that name listed as the first author for all editions.

The other books appear to have been published under Cindy Cowles, but having them under Cindy Larie Cowles is fine. (No parentheses, though.)

If you would like to have Cindy Larie Cowles added as a second author for the 8 AnnaBelle Ashley books, so all the books will show up on the list for Cindy Larie Cowles, we can do that.

Yes that will work. I will be updating those book covers because they're now being sold under Cindy Larie, not AnnaBelle Ashley. Do I just update the covers or can I delete them and replace them? I'm not sure how/what is allowed on here. But yes, if I can't just delete the old covers, then add Cindy Larie Cowles as a second author. Thanks!

Cindy/AnnaBelle it might be helpful for you to read the FAQ for Authors, it covers quite a few topics about how we deal with books.
