 * Delete A genuine published author but does not yet meet WP:AUTHOR criteria for notability. asnac (talk) 10:20, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Further thoughts I wonder whether the criteria are quite fair however. It's a big deal to get a work of fiction published by a house like HarperCollins. One could argue that this of itself confers notability. asnac (talk) 12:29, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment I did some Googling but didn't find much. I found that one of her recipes had been in Delicious magazine. I found that she had had one article in the Italian Historical Society Journal. Also it looked like her university thesis (Inheriting Italy: Homecoming and Conciliation Within Diasporic Travel Memoir) was on the same topic as her book. So in case she qualified under WP:ACADEMIC I  checked two academic databases: "Academic Search Premier" and "JSTOR" but found nothing. Cloveapple (talk) 00:24, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
