I use {authors}, ln, fn, and kobo gives me all kinds of different results. Just first name, just initials, just fn and initial and sometimes last name. Makes the authors page pretty useless. Is that normal or something I probably did?

And multiple authors are separated by a , so you send "LN, FN", the result is that your Kobo thinks you have two authors.

I.e. "Ringo, John & Sherrer, Lydia" give you Ringo as one author, John & Sherrer as the 2nd author author and Lydia as the 3rd author. Whereas "John Ringo, Lydia Sherrer" gives you two authors with a first and last name.
