My Author Page lists a whole list of books that are not mine. My book list should only include "His Eyes: A Novel of Hope from Tragedy" and "Going Full Circle: Worship That Moves Us from Discipleship to Missions". Please remove all the others. Thank you very much! - Mark Charles Powers

You were assigned the wrong author profile, and when you changed your name from "Mark Powers" to "Mark Charles Powers", it also changed the author name on all the books that were incorrectly attached to you. To avoid this happening again, please contact Goodreads Support rather than editing your own author name. They have tools to reassign books in bulk, while librarians must move each edition one by one, and there are hundreds of affected titles.

When your profile was verified, Support should have removed the works that do not belong to you. Please contact them and ask that the books that are not yours be moved to the name “Mark Powers” rather than disambiguating them to another “Mark Charles Powers.”

Edit: I realized you already posted this last month and Scott replied here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Posting the request again will not lead to a different outcome. Now that the profile is verified, only Support can make the bulk changes. They will need to move the titles that do not belong to you to “Mark Powers”.

If you had posted here before claiming the profile, we could have handled the move first since only two books needed to be moved. But at this stage, staff needs to make the corrections.
