Looks like a vanity page Stev0 23:09, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The article has been completely re-written, it now shows notability. I withdraw the RfD nomination. Stev0 17:23, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per Astrokey. Highlights from Penguin, whose bio could be used to expand the article: "Stone Cold won the 1994 Carnegie Medal (WP says 1993)"; "one of only four authors to have won the prestigious Children’s Book Award twice". Angus McLellan (Talk) 11:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I confess, I didn't do the usual excercises when AfDing this; this is such a horribly written article (which I found when editing an inappropriate edit in another article) that I assumed it was vanity. If someone can rewrite it Wikistyle, I'll withdraw the AfD nomination. Stev0 11:38, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
