Completely unreferenced and marginally notable BLP about a young adult who has written several books. There appears to be a link to a HarperTeen article, but it 404s and I'm having no luck finding it. A quick Google search turns up lots of fansites, but i'm coming up empty for RS.

This is a book series that she wrote, and I don't see any reason to keep it around, either. It consists of mainly character descriptions, very light on actually indicating notability.

 * Keep'  The books are each of them in many hundreds of libraries, thus showing the importance of their author. The first one, is in over 1000. . There are refs to reviews in the G News archive search above.  DGG ( talk ) 00:33, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:10, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Idea. Close the AFD as "no consensus" but move to the incubator until a source or 2 can be found. I normally close these no consensus with leave to speedy renominate but I don't feel comfortable doing it with an unsourced BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 23:20, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I think that proves notability for both the author and the series. I've added them to the article on the author (btw, the best place to find reviews  for books like this is Book Review Digest, available at any medium size  or larger public or academic library) . My apologies for not adding them earlier.  DGG ( talk ) 21:01, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
