Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a writer with no strong claim to passing WP:AUTHOR. This is based entirely on primary sources (her own website, her own Instagram, the website of her publisher, Amazon.com) with no evidence of reliable source coverage about her in media shown at all, and the only notability claim even being attempted here is that she made Amazon's bestseller list in a highly specialized and rarefied category. A single-vendor bestseller list does not count as a notability claim for our purposes, however — to attain notability for making a bestseller list, a writer needs to have hit a list on the order of The New York Times or The Globe and Mail, not just one bookstore (whether online or physical). As always, writers are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist —they must have a credible notability claim per AUTHOR, and the reliable source coverage in media to properly support it, for a Wikipedia article to become earned.

 * There are independent references available eg http://www.calgarysun.com/2014/10/17/fighting-bullies-with-words--cochrane-teen-pens-book--for-the-beautiful-people and http://www.cochranetimes.com/2016/10/05/teen-reaches-publishing-deal-for-book-series so although I would like to get rid of this sort of page, it appears to pass WP:GNG.
