For Goodreads all editions of a book should have the same primary author, and that should be the name under which the book was first published. I have fixed this for you. The new edition will still display on your author page so no reason why anyone should be confused.

I'm still a little confused though because now the "Aurora Nelson" name is attached to *both* books and I still have no editing privileges on the original Wattpad edition. I don't want my real name on Goodreads at all.
Goodreads standards say that all editions of a book should have the same primary author and that should be the name under which the book was first published.If you want to ask for an exception to this you can contact staff https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...
I would like the two entries combined but I have no way of claiming the "Aurora Nelson" name as there is no online presence associated with the name and I changed my Wattpad account to my new pen name a few years ago.
Old Plague Saint page for the original Wattpad edition:
Plague Saint
New page for the upcoming release:
Plague Saint
I would prefer the entries be combined so the review on the old one can show on the new edition coming out, but if it is not possible to combine the pages due to the different author names I would like the old Wattpad one to be deleted if possible - I don't want that name attached to the book and I also don't want readers getting confused while looking for the new one.
Thank you!
