Hi there,

I added a new book to my profile, but the book immediately associated with a different person by the same name. The book is Origin Complex, and it linked to this author: Andrew Skinner.

Please can I have some help connecting the book to my profile? I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you!

Book moved to your author profile, which uses 3 spaces between your first and last name to differentiate from other same-name authors. If you add the extra spaces (Andrew---Skinner) when adding a book it will appear on your profile. This spacing doesn't affect searches or anything else.

I changed the format from ebook to kindle edition, as it has an ASIN, and didn't seem to connect to amazon until the format was corrected. Also added the cover from amazon.

Thank you for the help, and for the clarification. I appreciate your efforts!

Hello,

New here. I have tried to create an Author profile after recently publishing an e-book (The Journey of Water) and I followed goodreads instructions to first locate my book. I found it but the system has listed it under the wrong author (we share the same name - Katherine Davies - exactly the same spelling).

Here is my profile
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

And here is my e-book
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Thank you for your help!

Best wishes

Katherine The Journey of Water

Moved the book to a new author profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... To claim this profile, click on the "Is this you? Let us know" link near the bottom of that page. When approved it will merge with your current reader profile.

Thank you so much for your very swift and helpful assistance! Much appreciated.

Done, also moved other editions of your books that were in the other profile and combined them. Updated your series.

I just saw that all now. Thank you so much. I appreciate the help a lot. Thanks for your prompt assistance.

Hello there,

My latest book has been listed under another Laura Thomas (mine has 2 spaces between names).
The book is The Christmas Cabin: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

If you could remedy this as soon as possible, I would be most grateful!
Thanks so much!
Laura

Thank you for such a speedy response! :)

Done. Your profile actually has 3 spaces between first & last name.
