No evidence of notability, no RS coverage. In a WP:BEFORE, I found a sole RS passing mention of Fleming on the launch of his first book. Oddly for a man with three mainstream published books, I could find zero reviews in RSes - only the publisher pages. There appears to be no evidence of independent RSes covering Fleming in depth as would be required for a BLP to exist. What little coverage of Fleming exists is in fringe non-RSes, and even those are sparse. I would be delighted to be shown wrong with solid RSes that pass a notability criterion.

- Delete - just not finding any notable coverage, similarly to the nominator. A few passing mentions of his work, but absolutely nothing in-depth in reliable sources. Does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:NAUTHOR. —Ganesha811 (talk) 18:50, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

- Delete, I could also find no secondary coverage. I was able to find a singular interview in a blog, but nothing that would contribute to GNG. Devonian Wombat (talk) 02:49, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
