Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your article Jewelle Gomez. If you take a look at it you'll notice that I've wikified it a bit; that is, put in lots of links by enclosing the appropriate words in square brackets. Also, there's a category at the end so that she can be readily 'pigeonholed' (though it sounds like that's something she wouldn't like!). If you create more articles, try these things out yourself - it's very easy to do. One thing I would say though is that you need to put some independent references into your article to verify what's been written - Wikipedia is very keen on this (see here). Her own website and blog wouldn't count I'm afraid, but newspaper interviews and things like that would. If you have any problems, leave me a message here. Hope this helps!
