John (intuit) | 479 comments The two profiles of Jennifer Griffith and Jennifer Stewart Griffith are the same person. They should be consolidated and the duplicate books eliminated.

She seems to use both names. It does look like one or two are on the wrong page but I'm not sure that the two profiles should be merged. I'll add the request to the appropriate thread for the Staff to decide.

Really? I can't find it. Because while Banjomike is correct that we follow Goodreads policies, not necessarily the author's preference, it would be helpful to know whether she has any preference to keep the two names separate.

From what I could find, it doesn't seem like she does, and she clearly doesn't mind using the full version, so I went ahead and merged them.

But if you could point to the specific blog post that she has that talks about this, that would be great.
