Non-notable author. Claims of actual awards have not been verified, and being short-listed for various awards doesn't quite make the mark for WP:AUTHOR. No indications of any significant coverage other than the "local interest" piece that is provided as the sole reference for this autobiography. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:44, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment Article has been revised to show verification of awards. Still not clear that the awards won (Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice or Friends of American Writers Award) amount to "significant critical attention".  I'll defer to others more knowledgeable of the book trade.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:21, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Weak keep though I can't spot any online reviews of her (minor) award winning 2003 book, Haunted Ground , there are several for her most recent 2013 book The Book of Killowen  . This suggests to me she will at least scrape over the notability threshold of WP:AUTHOR (and that there are likely to be other offline(?) coverage of her earlier works).

 * Keep per WP:AUTHOR #3, multiple reviews. Her book Haunted Ground was reviewed in: New York Times, Publisher's Weekly, Kirkus, Booklist, Book-of-the-month Club, and many more. Lake of Sorrows was reviewed in New York Times, Publisher's Weekly, Kirkus, Booklist and many more. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 16:48, 23 August 2013 (UTC)
