Here's the guideline in the first post: "Nominations can be set in any region, but they should be written by an author from that region."



Yes and yes, although I hesitate to bring up that in an earlier vote the majority decided Nabokov qualified as from North America, so your Maugham example as worded might be less certain.
Nabokov was an American writing about America, so no uncertainty there! The peripatetic Maugham always was British.
