No apparent notability for the topic, and the only major contributor is the article's creator, who's done largely nothing more than copy large portions of the subject's blog into the page that then get reverted. Idran (talk) 15:58, 28 April 2010 (UTC) -- --Darkwind (talk) 17:14, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete I see nothing that confers notability for this author. Being published is not enough. Angryapathy (talk) 16:03, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete None of the assertions that he is a notable figure in literary and teaching circles were sourced; the majority of the article was, up until recently, an entirely non-critical puff piece lifted from the subject's blog. Most of the sources were his blog or other forms of Carter's work, though one was a link to his book's Amazon page.  Capntastic (talk) 23:15, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
