 * Delete it appears to be an article made by User:Ealgeone14 about himself as an author. With a single published book and no substantial third party coverage I do not believe this article meets WP:AUTHOR. I have told the user that I would move the article to his userpage but he has not responded and that was several weeks ago. Jersey Devil (talk) 13:10, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep The writer of notable books, is notable for being the writer of said books. What's wrong with the Google news results?  They walk about him and his work.   D r e a m Focus  07:23, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. Even if the book was notable, which it doesn't appear to be, the writer is not necessarily notable as the handful of reliable book reviews do not provide substantial coverage of the author.

 * Actually, that essay says "That is not to say that this is always the case (three of the notability guidelines, for books, films and music, do allow for inherited notability in certain circumstances)". The works that a person has created do create notability for the person. Silver  seren C 18:26, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Last I checked, Daymon Andrews was not a book, film or music. And consulting WP:BK for clarification, the point regarding inheritance in it is #5: "The book's author is so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable", which goes the other way.
