Give this a try:
\define newtags() [[$(currentTiddler)$]] [[$(author)$]] [[quote]]
<$list filter="[<currentTiddler>prefix[Book -]]">
<$button> New Quote
<$vars author={{!!author}}>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title=<<now
"YYYY.0MM.0DD.0hh0mm0ss
QUOTE - ">> tags=<<newtags>> />
</$vars>
</$button>
<$list filter="[tag<currentTiddler>!sort[title]]">
<h2><$link><$transclude field="title" mode="block"/></$link></h2>
<$transclude field="text" mode="block"/>
</$list>
</$list>
Notes:
1) The newtags() macro constructs the desired tags field value, using
[[...]] around each tag to handle spaces embedded in the current tiddler's
title and author fields
2) The $button gets the author field value as a variable, so that the
newtags() macro can refer to $(author)$ internally
