According to posts on my talk page, which I have no reason to disbelieve, as well as edits to the page by a user who appears to be her publicist, this article is requested to be deleted by its subject (see WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE). This is not an argument in itself, but it does incline to deletion if her notability is dubious, which I believe it is. From Google searching, I couldn't find significant, substantial independent mentions of her herself, only these short mentions:. Given this, she could only meet WP:NAUTHOR if her book has received significant critical attention, so let's look at WP:NBOOKS. Again from Googling, I didn't see anything encouraging, except if her book Please Knock "has won a major literary award". It did win an IPPY bronze medal in its category, but it didn't win the category, and moreover there were five other bronzes awarded. So I think BLPREQUESTDELETE comes into play.

 * Delete per nom - We tend to ignore BLPREQUEST if the subject is notable ... however in this case they're not, I've not found anything at all on Google News and I'd imagine there's not much anywhere else either, Article fails GNG anyway so their wish is our command I suppose. – Davey 2010 Talk 22:58, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete This person is not notable, and since the subject herself apparently has requested deletion, we have no good reason not to respect her wishes per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. With the current state of internet privacy, I think every non-notable or borderline notable individual should have the right to request their article be deleted.
