Guille Jiménez (guillejimenez) | 4 comments Hello. My name is Guille Jiménez, and my new book El demonio en el interior de Siriel was added to the database, but a new author was created instead of linking to my author account Guille Jiménez Cantón
This also doesn't let me update my pen name to Guille Jiménez, as another author already is Guille Jiménez

Can someone fix this? Please. Thank you.

Olivia (livka) | 7926 comments Hi, I linked the book to your profile.
I also corrected others, with the name 'Guillermo Jiménez' to list this name as a primary author, in line with Goodreads policy

Thank you, Olivia! Could you please put 'Guille Jiménez' as the primary name? It will be the name I will be using forward. I hope it's not a hussle.

Olivia (livka) | 7926 comments Sorry, but it is a Goodreads policy to list an author the books were originally published under as primary author on all editions.

But 'Guillermo Jimenez' is already one or more other authors. https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

There are a lot of books there piled up from different authors. My books are the four ones listed here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
minus the fifth one, which was never printed or distributed in any way and I've already asked for it to be deleated.

Is there something that can be done about that?

Olivia (livka) | 7926 comments I moved three of your books to a new 'Guillermo Jiménez' profile.
