Hi - Someone kindly removed the below two books previously, but later I needed two claimed profiles merged, and there they are again! Please remove and thanks so much. Perfection awaits and I couldn’t be happier with the work you folks do. Peter (This author shouldn’t have the initial, which is why mine does)

Illustrators are listed as secondary authors/contributors.
Your name is on the cover as the illustrator, so it will stay on the book record.

You should remove your email address from this post as this is a public and searchable forum. For future reference, we cannot see your dashboard. Just search the ISBN first to see if the book is here before adding it, just in case.

1. Goodreads disambiguates between authors of the same name by using spaces before the author's last name.
2. Your author profile has 7 spaces: Sandra^^^^^^^Lee, where the ^ equals a space.
3. When publications are automatically imported from Amazon or other sources, the "handshake' between Goodreads and the other source do not recognize multiple spaces, so the work goes to the default 1 space profile.
4. You can post in this forum to have it moved, or you can add the book with the 7 spaces before your last name before publication.
5. When you ask for assistance, it is VERY helpful to include that your author profile has 7 spaces.
6. When you add a book, it will go directly to your profile if you go to this page:
Books by Sandra Lee
and scroll down to where it says: * Note: these are all the books on Goodreads for this author. To add more books, click here. [there is a hyperlink for adding your books on the "Click Here " that will ensure your author name is correctly formatted.

I am on confused and new to good reads ,I have asked librarians to remove books which are on my profile from other authors of the same name as me ,have noticed this post so it must be happening to others.

An author's name has to match exactly [spelling, spacing and punctuation] for a book to go to their profile.
The volunteer librarians in this forum can move books pretty quickly, so if you get a book on your profile that are not yours just ask in this forum.
You can post in this thread, or make a new thread as you did before.
