Bibliography[edit]

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for organising short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.

Promo and too detailed[edit]

This article looks as if it has been created by person(s) related to the subject, and it is way too long, reads like a resume/promo, and has not nearly enough citations. With an eye to WP:BIO, WP:BLP, WP:SOAPBOX and WP:BIODD, if someone is willing to copyedit this article to standard, please do so, or I will be coming back with a machete and doing a slash-and-burn to cut this down by about 75%, and I am not going to be hunting down each of those publications to assess its notability, and I don't know which are more important than others. It is certainly not necessary to include every piece of published work for minor authors, and each statement in the article needs to be cited inline (at the end of the paragaph if appropriate).
