Ref #1: is a press release. Ref #2, 404 error— that aside, I am not convinced that the "leading Persian magazine of western Canada" has sufficient breadth of readership to qualify its content as able to support a notability claim. Ref #3 is a personal PDF file, lacking independence. Ref. #4 does not mention the subject anywhere. Ref #5 appears to be a press release on one of her books written by the publisher, "faripublishing.com". Ref #6 is a link to an Amazon page where her book can be purchased. Ref. #7 does not mention the subject, though it appears it may have originally been a kind of review for a book, in which case it might have been useful for a notability argument for that book, not necessarily for the author (just as the article on Hyperbole and a Half has no corresponding article on its author), and even if it did include that kind of coverage, I am not convinced, based on what I was able to determine from the web site, that the publication is itself a reliable source of information. Lastly, there is no corresponding article on the Persian Wikipedia about her, which leaves us at a dead end. There does not appear to be enough genuine, reliable, independent, non-trivial material here to qualify this person as notable, and failing the appearance of such, I nominate it for deletion.

 * Delete lacks adequate sources to pass GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:59, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment, the article creator was a spa on this subject so doesn't appear to be around to possibly provide notable sources, a gsearch brings up nothing useable for either the subject or her books so delete as does not meet WP:GNG OR WP:AUTHOR, per nom the article references are unable to be used as they are either press releases from the publisher, don't work, are trivial mentions, or don't relate to subject.
