There are absolutely no sources here. Scientific Alan 2 (Talk to the hand)  17:24, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Unreferenced biography of novelist with one book published. This article fails our notability guideline at WP:AUTHOR.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  17:42, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete and userfy for now with no prejudice towards a future article. Google News didn't find anything useful aside from goodreads.com reviews and a different search found some blogs here, here, here and here and one interview here. These reviews are giving her and the book good reception so this may give her more attention in the future especially for the next books but there isn't much for an article at this time.

 * Delete as per User:SwisterTwister. The prize might help towards meeting WP:AUTHOR but appears to be a local association's competition and award for people unpublished in the chosen genre: . AllyD (talk) 20:47, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment: It should be considered as to whether or not the book itself merits an entry as well. I'm noticing a lack of sources for the book as well. If notability can be established for the book then this article can redirect there.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   04:34, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. I wasn't able to find anything to show that this author or her book pass notability guidelines. I redirected the book's article to her entry, for whatever that might mean for it if this article is deleted. The only sources that are out there are routine notifications of readings and non-usable blog reviews. It's a shame that there aren't more sources out there, but it is what it is. If the original editor is involved with her or the publisher in any way, as I've got a slight suspicion this might be the case, I'd like to recommend that they try getting some of the local papers to cover her. If we only had maybe 2-3 more articles about her or the book in a reliable source such as a newspaper, then this would pass notability guidelines. It doesn't have that right now, so we can't really justify keeping the article.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   05:11, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Userfy per Sister and WP:CRSYTAL. I independntly found some of the same sources, includingher book-reading tour on Goodreads.com.  I have not heard of her, although I go to a lot of cons. I could not find a lot of good sourced online.  Anyone else? Bearian (talk) 00:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
