 * Delete. A young author with two novels published by a small publisher and only one review in a third-party source. She may in future merit an article but at present I don't see sufficient indication of notability. --Deskford (talk) 22:45, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

You’ll find there is far more than one review and not just by third party sources out there. Neary is well known in Glasgow for performances and in literarily circles. The page article needs to more content agreed but deletion would be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.103.28.91 (talk) 18:36, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I’m not quite sure what ‘young’ has to do with anything unless you feel someone should be excluded on age alone. The Scottish Parliament congratulated Neary on the publication of her first novel as being one of Scotland’s youngest authors of 2009.
