Draft deletion
Please note that I have deleted your draft article as wholly inappropriate for inclusion. Not only was it promotional in nature, contrary to our policies, it also contained an excessive amount of personal information on a private individual. There are many platforms that you can use to promote yourself and your unpublished and self-published works, but Wikipedia is not one of them. Please do not repost your personal information anywhere on Wikipedia. Thank you, -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 19:35, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
