Looks to me like she wants them separate. Some authors like to separate their different genres with different author names.
I don't know the second one with the E doesn't even have a picture of her or any links to blogs. I'm just wondering if someone created it when they read the book, you know how we can post info on a book when there isn't any and didn't know to combine them?
The profiles seem to be for different genres. Since the books on the E profile do have that initial on the cover, I think they should stay separate, unless the author tells us differently. And in that case the name would be changed to the more complete version.
I've requested to have my profiles merged as well. There are two, one with my initials separated with periods (P.J. Fiala) which is incorrect. It should be PJ Fiala (no periods). I've requested this be changes three years ago to no avail. Can someone please, please help me with this?

But that's not my author name. If you look at all of my books there is no period between my initials.
