C. M. Mason | 16 comments Hello,

The cover for Once Upon A Mirror changed on Amazon. How can I get it updated on Goodreads?

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

Also, I went through a Pen Name. The following books were listed under Christopher M. Mason. They should merged with their counterparts listed under C. M. Mason. They are the same books, released under a new Pen Name.

The Neighborhood Witch (ebook, Paperback, Hardcover, Audible)

Old Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

New Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The Neighborhood Vampire (ebook, Paperback, Hardcover, Audible)

Old Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

New Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The Neighborhood Ghost (ebook, Paperback, Hardcover, Audible)

Old Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

New Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The Cowboy and The Witch (ebook, Paperback, Hardcover)

Old Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

New Pen Name - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Shim (slimmy) | 3653 comments Your author page name on Goodreads must match the cover on your books.

If you have new books published under a new pen name, they can have the new pen name as the primary author. Any new editions of books that were previously published under a different name must use the original name as the primary author, but the new pen name can be added as a secondary author.

I have asked Goodreads Support to revert your author page name to "Christopher M. Mason".

If you wish, you can claim this page https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... using a separate account. You can indicate which books are yours in the form.

Note we can update covers for Audible and Kindle editions, but any other book formats that were published with the previous name on the cover cannot be updated.

C. M. Mason | 16 comments Not all of those books are mine. There are some that were published under a different author with the same pen name.

I only have five books with the Pen Name of C. M. Mason. They are as follows:

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

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

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

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

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

So do I have to claim the new page under a new account? I can't claim it with the same log in? I can't merge the books together? The ebook link is the same on Amazon. I updated the name.

How do I add a secondary author to the original listings?

Also, how to do I update the cover for Once Upon A Mirror? It releases October 21st and I updated the cover.

C. M. Mason | 16 comments The pen name Christopher M. Mason has extra books too.

For reference, the following should be under Christopher M. Mason

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

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

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

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

There are explicit books associated to my pen name. Those came from a different author. Once Upon A Mirror is listed as suitable for all ages fairy tale. I'd very much appreciate the explicit books removed from my new author pen name.
