I am not sure what the 'it' is that you want to change. What I can do is tell you how to make authors sort by first letters in all cases.
Steps:
1) Open the tweaks editor preferences -> advanced -> tweaks.
2) In the 'all available tweaks' window, find
author_sort_copy_method = 'invert'
Copy this line to the Current tweaks window
3) Change the line you just copied to read
author_sort_copy_method = 'copy'
4) Apply the changes and restart calibre
5) Right-click on an author in the tags view (left hand pane) and select 'manage authors'
6) Press the 'recalculate all author sorts' button. The second column should become equal to the first.
7) Press OK.
Done.
What you first did is tell calibre that the authors are to be used exactly as written. You then asked calibre to rebuild all of the sort values for all the authors. This process will change the author_sort value in all the books.
Note that if you want authors to be sorted by last name in your library but first name in the tag browser, you are out of luck. Calibre does one or the other.
