Last year you were still very happy with it and with the 5-star reviews, so please stop denying you wrote it.

But as I was saying, please remove it from my profile. My name is mine, and no one should be able to decide where it should go or stay. Please could you help me?"


Your name is on your book, clear as day. This is a book cataloguing site. For cataloguing, we use the info on the books. We also use approved sources to disambiguate authors, and this book is yours.

I have removed these. If I missed one please advise.
It make take a little time for them to all disappear from your dashboard, but from this view they seem to all be removed.

Don't you mean the other way around? K. Renee is the correct (and claimed) profile. K Renee should be merged into it, but only staff can merge profiles where one is claimed.

No there are two different K.Renee’s. The one the books are currently under are incorrectly claimed, they were not written by her but by the other K. Renee at https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

I'm reviewing these

There were a total of 4 profiles with works of both of these authors.

I have disambiguated the 2 authors: K. Renee

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

If I assigned a work to the wrong author, please advise.

Kay Jordan | 2 comments Please remove the following books from my author profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/dash...

4. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
5. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
6. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Also, I added the book Through the Gate originally because I couldn't find it, can you link my e-book to it too?
Through the Gate (Paperback) on GoodRead: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
Through the Gate (Ebook) on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Through-Gate-Ka...

Will this also update my cover for my book?

Thanks,

Kay

It would be much simpler to identify which books really are yours.
But I will work on it. It will take some time.

Jonathan, you should probably ask support to move you and your books to a different profile.

Thanks, Susan. Since you only have the one book and the other author is very prolific, please ask Support to move you and your book to a new profile: https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

(If that doesn't work, you could use this email: support (at) goodreads (dot) com )

Jared Chapman (jaredkchapman) | 2 comments Greetings Superlibrarians. I am a new author, Jared K Chapman. My debut novel is 2HVØRHVNØT: To Have or Have Not. That is my only book. There is a kid's author and illustrator named Jared Chapman whose books are on my author page. Can you please remove all of those books? Sorry for the confusion.

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

I tried to change my name to Jared K Chapman to fix it and it change all of his books to Jared K Chapman too... sorry about that. They should be Jared Chapman only.

You have changed your author profile name. This creates cascading problems since it affects all the books in your profile. Please change it back before any other changes can occur.

edit: It should be Jared Chapman
changing it to match your book is another issue. But first please put your profile back to the original name.

ok: Now, Please contact Goodreads support, and tell them that:

1. Your profile should be Jared K. Chapman, to match your book cover.

2. You should have a separate profile from Jared Chapman the illustrator.

They can make these changes easily, and it will create problems for the existing illustrator's followers to move all those works from the current profile.

It was there all the time. I moved everything you asked, and more besides. Since you didn't request this one to be moved, I thought it was yours.
