Created by Piotrus (talk) and Laked98 (talk). Nominated by Piotrus (talk) at 04:01, 24 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Dave Rudden; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Interesting writing, on plenty of sources, no copyvio obvious. I like the hook. You may consider a few things for the article:

How about a bit more lead about the character of his works?
Dublin - like current countries and their capitals - doesn't need a link.
I don't "(Episode 8)" means, not for Dublin where it sits, not for a competition.
The sentence about the reviews and prizes of the first novel might be better split in two.
I've seen "in the category Teen & Young Adult" instead of "(Teen & Young Adult)". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:14, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
