Non-notable author edit

The sources given only mention one award won by Shirley Nelson's book The Last Year of the War, a Harper-Saxton Fellowship, which is not a prestigious award. CentreLeftRight 23:02, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Contested deletion edit

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because the article has credible, reliable documentation that demonstrates the subject's notability as an award winning writer and well-reviewed novelist. Contrary to CentreLeftRight, please note that the Harper-Saxton Fellowship, also known previously as the Saxton Prize from Harper and Row Publishers, is indeed a prestigious award, and has been won by notable authors such as James Baldwin, Ken Kesey, Frederick Exley, and Craig Nova. --Ungathering (talk) 23:18, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
