Emily Ryan | 3 comments Hi,

I'm a new to Goodreads, but I released my first book, On the Mend, last year as well as a short story called Christmas Confessions. Both are now being attributed to the wrong Emily Ryan, so I'm not sure how I can claim them. I also don't have my author account set up yet. Can you help with both?

Abcdarian | 26579 comments I've moved them to a new profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
This profile uses 2 spaces between the names (Emily^^Ryan) to differentiate it from the other author, so if you are adding more books, just put in the extra space and it will go to that profile.

You can claim the profile by using the link at the very bottom of that page. ("Is this you? Let us know.")

Stevie Wilson (steviecwilson) | 1 comments Hi,


It appears I'm having the same issue, as my contribution to Vancouver Confidential (ed. John Belshaw) is attributed to the wrong Stevie Wilson. Can you point me in the right direction to correct this? Thanks!

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Yes, exactly the same situation Stevie. I've made a new author profile here https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... using two spaces (Stevie^^Wilson) and you can claim it if you wish.
