Robert Aiello

  • Source: Gannon, Joyce (1999-09-14). "Dial M for Money: Former Ketchum Exec Hopes to Cash in With Mystery Book". Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Archived from the original on 2024-07-25. Retrieved 2024-07-25.

    The article notes: "Aiello received about 60 rejection letters from East Coast book agents before he decided to pitch "The Deceivers" directly to small publishers. One of them, Creative Arts Book Co. of Berkeley, Calif., liked his 246-page manuscript and gave Aiello a one-book contract. The novel is scheduled for release later this month in soft cover for $14.95."

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Article was created on July 25, and nominated less than one week later on August 1. Length and sourcing are adequate. The article is neutral in tone, and no plagiarism issues were found. The book is interesting to a broad audience, supported and verified by the citation. I added the word "first" to the hook to ensure that nobody will misunderstand the sourcing or which novel it was. I replaced "got" with "was", for better encyclopedic tone. The QPQ reqirement is completed. Thank you for a worthy contribution to Wikipedia. Flibirigit (talk) 03:58, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
