If you are just trying to avoid collections that have less than a certain number of books, then you can set this up when you customise the Kindle Collections plug-in in Calibre - just put, for example, 2 in the ‘Minimum’ column & then when you ‘Create Authors’ you’ll only get collections for those authors with more than 2 books in your library.

If however you also want to get a collection that holds all those authors with, say less than 2 books, I’m trying to think of a way to do that… there might be a simple way but only thing I can think of at the moment is to try the Author Book Count plugin at

(I haven’t used this, by the way, so can’t comment on how it works).
Then you can sort by that column, select all the authors with 1 & 2 book authors, give them a new tag, & then create a collection based on that tag.

Apologies if I’ve misunderstood what you’re trying to do. And of course, someone might have a much easier way to deal with your problem, but I have a cracker of a headache at the moment & this is the best I can think of at the moment.

Good luck!
