Can my title and author name be different from the cover or what is listed Wordclays Web site on “My Account” book details?
Although the title and author name can appear different or be written slightly different from what is listed as the title and pen name on the Wordclay book details page, typically they should match in order to avoid confusing individuals attempting to find or purchase the book. For instance, if your official title is listed, “Title of My Book” in book details, it is acceptable on the cover or title page to show the title in a different style, such as “Title of MY Book” or “Title of my book.” However, you should not actually change the wording of the title, such as, “Title of His Book” or “Best Title of My Book.” The same rule applies for the author name. If your name is listed “John H. Smith” in the book details, you should not change it to “J.H. Smith” on the cover or title page. If you want your pen name to be J.H. Smith, you should change it in the book details.
