:Re Ann Cummins, no it's not, but have a read of WP:OTHERCRAP. Your argument about many, many entries about contemporary writers needing deletion does not hold water. Re "find one line unsupported by fact." - The articles second sentence, "Glasser’s imaginative work often explores the diminishing options of characters undergoing emotional stress until their only remaining choice is violence; his memoirs and essays illuminate questions of how we live now." An unsourced peice of puffery. Re self published sources. Who publishes your website? Re COI, no it doesn't create a market for professional Wikipedia entry makers, it stops wikipedia being inundated with biased vanity pices on random individuals. Re Primary sources, if someone wins a pulitzer then it is best to souces it to an independent reliable sources. You ask on the Talk:Perry Glasser pageabout "or that the Boston Globe is not a responsible 3rd party?" It's not independent, you wrote that article. What establishes notability, read WP:N. Find independent reliable sources that write about you. Not going on about awards from your publishes, counts of boos published and residencies. See also WP:TLDR.
