You don't need to create a separate field in Authors model

class Author(models.Model):
    AuthorName = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True)

class Book(models.Model):
    BookName = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    Author = models.ForeignKey('Author')

You can get all books of a particular author like:

author = Author.objects.get(id=1)
books = author.book_set.all()
