[edit] Nathan Thoms
Author with one self-published book based on own thesis. Likely autobio. Speedy declined. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 09:51, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
- Delete His book doesn't appear to be self-published actually (it made it on Amazon under a publisher), but with the current sources, he still appears to be a blogger/movie reviewer with no notability. I can't find anything on google to suggest that he's been in the media. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 12:56, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Lulu.com is a vanity press that distributes through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. It's very good, actually, but still counts as self-publishing. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 01:57, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
