message 651: by Liz (new)

Liz Long (bibliomadic) | 1 comments Hi,

This book was written by a different Amy Klinger who wasn't linked to it.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

The author who wrote "In Light of Recent Events" uses this account: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8...

If you could fix this, or remove the other author so the real author can add herself, that'd be great!

Thanks!

K.D. Robertson | 10 comments Hi,

My latest book landed on the profile of an author with the same name. Could someone please move it to my profile:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

If it helps, Goodreads formats my author name with two spaces between "K.D." and "Robertson" in the author field.

Thanks!

Lily (mslilyanderson) | 5 comments This book is mine but is attributed to another author with the same name. I'd really appreciate it being moved to my profile!

I would just move the ones that are his to a new profile manually and transfer his information to it, leaving that existing one as the default.

M.J. Hayes (mjhayesnovels) | 4 comments Hello,

I am the author of this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

I would like it moved to my author page, please. I believe the issue was caused by whoever added the book spelling my name with a lowercase "j" rather than a capital.

My Amazon author page showing my titles: https://www.amazon.com/M-J-Hayes/e/B0...

Thank you.

I have attempted to join the Author Program twice but receive notice that my application has not been successful. I think it is because when I click on the author for the above book it just goes to a blank profile. is it possible to link it to my profile?

Linking it to your profile is the same as claiming your author profile, since you have a user profile right now. If your application was rejected just contact Support directly and tell them which book is yours.

That's what the application is for. There is nothing we can do about it here. Please contact support.

Rebecca Rossi (geminibec17) | 4 comments Can you please remove The Devil Within Me from my author dashboard. It is actually my book but my publisher told me once I publish it, it will create another duplicate so if you could remove this one, I will wait for the Amazon one. Thank you!

Luke Swanson | 14 comments Hello! I am Luke Swanson, an author with a Goodreads account. My new book Epicenter was attributed to a different Luke Swanson. I have two requests:

1. Could Epicenter please be attributed to me?

Luke Swanson's profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

2. Could Epicenter please be added as Book 2 in this series?

The book, Unstoppable Life, is showing up on as my book, but I didn't write it. Would you please remove it from my page? I'm sure the other Kat Sanders would like it on their author page instead.

Unstoppable Life

message 695: by Angus (new)

Angus (angusm) | 11 comments Hi

The page https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... lists a number of books, some of which are by me and some of which are by another Angus McIntyre (who probably deserves his own author page).

The first three books in the listing, namely:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

contain stories that I have written. The first two of those are actually already listed on my author page at:

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

but I'd be very grateful if you were able to link up the third as well.

The remaining books on the page:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

are by the other Angus McIntyre. More information about this gentleman, should you need it, is at:

https://www.mup.com.au/authors/angus-...
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/...

Finally, would it be possible to add me as a contributor to:

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

and link that book to my author page? If you go to the Amazon page for this title and zoom in on the cover, you'll see that I am listed as one of the short story authors for this collection. Or should I contact the editor and ask him to ensure that I'm listed as a contributor?

Thank you for your time.

Julie Stone | 2 comments HELP! The following books have shown up as written by me and are not mine. I think they are SPAM as they all showed up on the same day and are Erotica. I would really appreciate if they could be removed as soon as possible, as I have a new book coming out on Monday. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Someone has deleted them, but I don't know if they were marked as non-books. So if they reappear just post again.

S.L. Michaels | 1 comments I have just joined the author program, and clicked on my book, but it was assigned to an author who has the same name as me.
This is my book

Because of this mistake, I haven't been able to claim my book and set up my Author Page on Goodreads.
Please, please fix this mistake!
