P.J. Fitzsimmons | 23 comments Hello. My latest book Foreboding Foretelling at Ficklehouse Felling has been assigned to some chap named PJ Fitzsimmons, whereas I am famous as P.J. Fitzsimmons.

Whenever you have a chance to merge my personalities it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

P.J.

Emmy de Reus (nyneve) | 19384 comments The book has been moved to your profile.

This book record was auto-created by the amazon import bot and unfortunately your name on Amazon is spelled without the periods after your initials, which causes the imports to go to the wrong profile.
Maybe you can work something out to the effect that both names (on Amazon and Goodreads) will match?

GR policy is: initials followed by periods!
If an author uses initials in their name, the initials should contain NO spacing between them and be marked with a period. No spaces within the letters of a name.

Please edit this topic's title, marking it as [DONE], using the tiny EDIT-button at the right of the topic's title (only available for desktop/laptop, not in the app). This will help the other Librarians to focus on the requests that are still open.
Don't forget to save.

P.J. Fitzsimmons | 23 comments Hi Emmy and thanks for the reply and suggestion. I'm not sure what it means, however, to "work something out to the effect that both names will match". With whom would that be worked out?

When this has happened in the past the easy and only recourse was to ask here in this forum to have the errant title associated with the correct author.

Thank you,

Phillip
