Gaines Post (gainespost) | 5 comments Hello,

I am the author of That One Pretty Thing. My name is Gaines Post; I also wrote The Pinnacle and was the translator of Skinner's Box. I just tried to add That One Pretty Thing to Goodreads, but it seems to have gotten added to my uncle's list of works -- his name is also Gaines Post, but he is a different person (author of Memoirs of a Cold War Son (Singular Lives: The Iowa Series in among others).

I think I must have made a mistake while manually adding That One Pretty Thing to Goodreads. Is there any way to fix this so that That One Pretty Thing comes up on my list of authored works instead of my uncle's?? Also, how do I avoid this problem in the future, when I publish new books?

Thank you!! And sorry for the inconvenience!

Sincerely,

Gaines Post

You have two spaces in between your first and last name (to disambiguate you from others of the same name). If you add books to Goodreads yourself, just make sure to add the extra space and they'll show up on your profile.
