My book attributed to another author who shares my pen name—please separate > Likes and Comments

Hi librarians, thank you for your help.
My debut novel has been attributed to an existing "Rae James" author profile that isn't me. That profile has 7 books, none of which are mine—I publish under the same pen name but am a different person, and this is my only book. I don't yet have my own author profile on Goodreads.

Could you please separate this book onto its own distinct "Rae James" author record (disambiguated from the existing Rae James who wrote the other 7 titles)?

Title: Safe Place
Subtitle: An Opposites-Attract Emotional College Romance

ASIN: B0H6XHSK5D

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

Format: Kindle eBook

Expected publication: September 8, 2026

Once the book is on a separate author record, I'll apply through the Goodreads Author Program to claim it as the author. Thank you so much!

Hello, done: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

To claim the profile, go to the author page linked above and click “Is this you? Let us know.” on desktop, then complete the Author Program application.

Thank you so much, Tami—I really appreciate the quick help! I'll go claim the profile now.

Hi Tami—thank you again for separating this back in June.

Unfortunately it's reverted. Safe Place has re-linked to the other "Rae James" (the profile with 4 books and the blank silhouette avatar), and it's no longer showing on my verified author profile. This happened right after I edited the book's description today, so I think the edit re-triggered the author matching and it defaulted back to the larger same-name record.

Could you please relink Safe Place to my profile again? My verified author record is: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

I have moved it back. Please do not change the name on the book again.
