how can I search for author name only?
I have a Kindle Touch (and just ordered a paperwhite which I'm excited about), and have a question on the search function:

Whenever I search for a book using the author name, all instances of that name comes up (for example, if his name is mentioned in a different book). This is annoying as often book by that author will frequently not be the first entry on the search list (or even the fourth or fifth). Is there a way to make the kindle only search in author names, rather than do a full text search?

Also, I just updated my software and now I can't figure out how to access my collections. Any advice appreciated.
