Not notable: started as a puff piece, and hasn't improved much. Can find no evidence of passing specific (author) or general guidelines. Drmies (talk) 03:14, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I am tempted to say that any article that starts out "xxx is an author specializing in books that help change lives" ought to be instantly deleted. However, if that was the only thing wrong with the article, it could be corrected through normal editing.  In this case, though, there are no reliable, independent sources that give significant coverage (rather than passing mention) to this person. Fails both the general notability guideline and our notability guideline for authors. The distinctive name leaves little room for doubt.   Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  05:47, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm unable to find any reliable, independent sources that talk about her. Her last book, The Compass, in which she co-wrote, might be a semi-hit.  But, I'm unable to find it was on NY Times or other big best-seller list. Bgwhite (talk) 07:29, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Nielsen BookScan shows that The Compass came nowhere close to being a bestseller. Hunt for sources, even within the book trade, provides no in-depth coverage. Fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. Yunshui 雲水 09:50, 24 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete Fails WP:GNG (Google searches revealed hardly any third-party reliable sources) and WP:CREATIVE. Sp33dyphil © • © 10:33, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
