Problem with having an oh-so-common name is that people on Goodreads keep attaching other writers' books to my profile. I have to be diligent and detach them as soon as I catch the mistake. When I first began getting published, I didn't come across any other book authors with my name. I mainly had to compete in search engines with the actress and later the shoe designer. Since we're not in the same industry, this wasn't too big of a problem. In fact, I got extra website and social media hits from fans Googling the more famous incarnations. These days, it seems there are several authors who share my name and readers are getting confused.
A good rule of thumb for my readers - If it's not on my website, I didn't write it. =)
