I am sure someone else must be doing this, so I would appreciate any input. I am just not getting my mind wrapped around how to handle this.

I have 2 libraries (well, actually a 3rd working library, but let's pretend 2). My Main library where my normal retail books are and a fanfiction library for, well, fanfiction.

In my main library, I use the default settings (at least, I think they are default!) where authors display as "firstname lastname" but the actual sort (shown in the tweak as 'invert') is "lastname, firstname". That's the way I like it and it works. And the sort on my kindle by author last name works...just the way I want it.

However, in my second library, for fanfiction, I changed the tweak to 'copy'. This is because for pen names that are two words or more (ex. 'I love fanfic') I want the author to both display and sort as 'I love fanfic' and NOT 'fanfic, I love'.

Now, when I was doing a boatload of work in my fanfic library (thank goodness for the FFDL plugin!) I changed the tweak to copy and went about my work. But now I'm at a point where I'll be switching back and forth more often and changing the tweak and restarting whenever I switch libraries does not fill me with happy thoughts.

So am I overlooking some other way to manage this? Does anyone else have 2 separate libraries with different author sorts? How do you manage them?
