Apart from the primary sources used as references in this article, the extensive puffery, and the fact that the subject himself appears to have been involved in editing it, I am uncertain this individual meets Wikipedia's notability requirements: the various awards noted appear to be from non-notable organizations (on which I could sometimes find little or no information on the Internet), the interviews do not appear to be from recognized reliable sources (those at knotlitmagazine.com I could not locate even using the Wayback Machine, one is a Youtube video, another comes from what might be a personal blog, etc.). Having written reviews of the works of others does not mean the subject himself warrants an article, and neither does having one's work included in an anthology. Links to some evidence of having received these awards, and evidence of the awards being from notable organizations, would go a long way towards satisfying a notability claim, but without these, the notability of the subject looks thin.

 * Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Articles for deletion/Log/2017 June 5.  —cyberbot I   Talk to my owner :Online 02:44, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. as I find the article to be both of low quality, and fails WP:BDD on several counts. I've haven't investigated the claim of WP:COI by an editor as was reported by KDS4444. Going to assume good faith there, and count that against it as well. -ZarosFlok (talk) 01:13, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
