Tagged (by me) for notability questions since July 2013. The subject is clearly an active writer for a number of major periodicals and most of this article is about this work, cited to the periodical articles themselves. I've searched for significant independent coverage about Saunders but can find very little - a short article and very long quote in a Queens NY magazine, and a listing article in a Connecticut publication. Not sure this is sufficient to convince me she passes WP:GNG criteria. Sionk (talk) 20:10, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Oppose The subject matter seems notable enough. Perfect Orange Sphere (talk) 06:20, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep I had looked at her article at the launch of WikiProject Women Artists and decided it was a keeper, just needing some improvement source wise. I consider her work with major publishers to be the equivalent of a major exhibition at a museum. She's also designed numerous cards for Magic: The Gathering, and a few different Playbill covers, which combined with her publishing history, is rather notable. Reliable secondary sources for the sake of it.. The book she authored about Mars Attacks was reviewed by NPR. SarahStierch (talk) 16:36, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
