This paywalled article on her 2020 book from NT News ("Tanya Heaslip to debut 'An Alice Girl' at Red Kangaroo Books") seems to be promising, but I'm mostly finding radio/podcast appearances (ABC: [1][2][3] and 6PR: [4]) and passing mentions (NT News and Books+Publishing).

Also found Eclectica Magazine's reviews of Alice to Prague (2019) and An Alice Girl (2020). Bridget (talk) 16:48, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A good part of these articles from The West Australian [5] and The Times [6] talk about her experience at the School of the Air and also discuss her books. There's also a piece on An Alice Girl in a smaller newspaper, the Stock Journal [7]. Bridget (talk) 00:13, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
5 appears to be written by "STEPHEN SCOURFIELD and School of the Air alumni", so it's not independent. 6 is also a primary source that lacks independence because it's based on an interview with Heaslip in which she is liberally quoted. I don't have access to 7, but if it's a book review, that could contribute to meeting NAUTHOR, but I don't think NT News, Eclectica, and Stock Journal are enough. I also don't have access to the NT News source, but from its title, it appears to be a routine announcement. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:05, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails NAUTHOR and I haven't found enough significant coverage to meet GNG either. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:56, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
