R.S. McCoy (rsmccoy) | 2 comments Hello librarians!

I operate on Goodreads as R.S. McCoy and have all my books listed correctly (many thanks to the librarians who have helped me over the years)! I recently learned that readers had uploaded my books as RS McCoy and rated/reviewed them there. Because of the punctuation difference, they aren't linked to my actual account. There only seem to be a handful so far, but every review counts! Is there any way to get the others joined with my real account?

Thank you! <3

Ally Barnes (allybarnesdebbieann) | 3 comments Hello librarians,
I have co-written Honesty with Debbie Ann and had my page set up with both names. I am not sure why but only the one name is now showing.
Is it possible to have the account returned to Ally Barnes & Debbie Ann.
Our URL is https://www.goodreads.com/AllyBarnesD...

Thank you for your time
Ally

Ally, Goodreads policy is for each author to have a profile, rather than joint author profiles. Debbie Ann's is here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
