Merging author profiles

I changed my books authors' box to Thomas E Montgomery.(Notice no period after "E") which I prefer. It how ever created a new profile. I have tried to change my current profile to the same name but it says I must have Librarian access to accomplish this.
What can I do to fix this?
Thomas E Montgomery
Thomas E. Montgomery
#4: I have moved the books back to your profile.Goodreads house style is to use a period after initials and, when an author has multiple initials, to use periods without spaces:

If you have a problem with this, you will need to contact GR support, at "support at goodreads dot com".
Michael Butterworth apparently writes under the pseudonym Carola Salisbury and Carola Salisbury (real name Michael Butterworth).
We do not merge pseudonyms with the other author name(s), but I did edit and put in a link to the other profile.
