To change anything else, such as the title, author, or cover actually contained inside of the book you have to delete to old book from your Kindle and send the new one.

I don't guarantee that will work.

In addition if you use "My Clippings" you can edit it manually to change the title there.

Is it okay if I cite this information on the FanFicFare and eReaders page?
