Great work at Nettie Parrish Martin

Great choice of topic to fill out our coverage of early women sci-fi authors! Really a topic in genuine need of coverage that had somehow been overlooked.

Thanks for sticking to it and not giving up on your draft, and now it's out there to help inform the world. Maybe you can drum up some further interest by drawing attention to your article on social media, like promoting it on your Twitter or Facebook, or posting to a site like Reddit to help explain Martin's impact on literature?

Also, if you happen to have a copy of any of her books, pre-1923 works are out of copyright, so you could photo/scan an image of a frontispiece or illustration from the book and upload it to Wikimedia Commons so you could illustrate your article? Or, if photos of the author herself are available, add her picture to the biography?

Those of course would just be icing on the cake, the important thing is you got your article properly formatted (I made a few small improvements) and with the key data, and properly cited which is always our key issue, and now it's out there for the whole world to see. Thanks for your hard work, and now that you understand the process I hope you'll enjoy writing more articles in the future. MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:54, 10 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
