Hello there, Librarians! I guess I just have one of those names. This seems to happen with some frequency. Another book popped up in my profile today that is NOT mine. Would someone be able to disconnect it from my profile, please? I would appreciate it! (-:It's called THREE PLAYS and although I'm a playwright...this book is not mine. (-;

I moved the book to a unique profile.
While I was looking at your profile, I standardized your titles, including removing descriptions from the title field, as these are against Goodreads cataloging standards. I also merged a blank duplicate edition, created a series and standardized the title/series names in accordance with GR policies.
You might like to know that Amazon "ebooks" are designated as Kindle format, and use the ASIN. I corrected a couple of those for you. Among the reasons that is important to you is that if the ASIN and Kindle format are correctly identified, it allows readers to be able to connect to the corresponding page on Amazon for more information or to purchase your title.

I also made some corrections to the editions with new covers for your previously published edition. Alternate Cover Editions are made when the same ASIN/ISBN has been used in new editions.
You can set the default edition so that your new cover will show on your author page and in searches:

Can you link to the books that actually are yours?
You should have a unique profile, not the default profile, since there are several other authors of the same name.
I will contact Goodreads Support to help get this corrected.

I am writing to report that this bookhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
is listing me among authors, whereas I have nothing to do
with it.
Please kindly remove my name from among the authors. If there is a bona fide
name coincidence, that author can still be listed there of course, but
NOT linked to my account. I am Goodreads author, my profile can be
found here:
