The subject fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG. Of the 10 sources 1. is a human interest story in a local paper following her move to Chicago; 2. and 3. are from the subject's own website; 4. is not in-depth and just a passing mention in a magazine on christian retailing with a circulation of 7000 copies most of which are sent to christian retail stores and churches ; 5. 6. 7. and 10. are from her publishers so not independent; 8. is a blog written by the subject about herself; 9. is the website of a program she founded so not independent.

 * Keep: passes #3 of WP:AUTHOR per   A quick search shows other in-depth coverage of this author leading me to say that  failed WP:BEFORE.   Toddst1 (talk) 22:34, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * thanks for the advice but Variety says "The company has optioned “The Accidental Empress” and “Sisi: Empress on Her Own.” (my emphasis) and WP:AUTHOR #3 states "such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work" (my emphasis) so this is probably a case of WP:TOOSOON for this criteria. So no under that criteria she does not pass yet but there may be enough reviews out there for this novel but for the moment I could only find Forbes contributors (notoriously unreliable as an independent source) blogs and presse releases. Maybe you can find something else. Domdeparis (talk) 08:17, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * If it's TOSOON to pass #3, she passes WP:GNG with, , and   Toddst1 (talk) 15:46, 16 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep She has plenty of reviews in RS, several of her books were confirmed bestsellers. I've added the reviews and more RS to the article. She passes CREATIVE. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:56, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment, this shows Pataki's The Traitor's Wife debuting at no.5 of NYT bestselling list (oh dear, with 50 shades at no. 4 after 101 weeks!:)), with reviews from kirkus, Publishers Weekly, Lincoln Journal Star, it meets WP:NBOOK and could have its own standalone article (yes some editors are uncomfortable with 'trade' reviews, nevertheless....), her other books also have a number of reviews, so its a keep as meeting no.3 of WP:NAUTHOR.
