The result was Delete. The complete lack of references, unanimous concerns about it being a hoax, and possible WP:BLP concerns over confusion with the similarly-named real author call for an early close. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 21:30, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can find no reference for this author or any books. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 23:22, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This article is a probable hoax, although there is indeed a real author by that name: Carol A Marron. WorldCat, [1] i suspect the bio is fictitious. The book title can not be verified. The awards are "Ballentyne Readers Circle", real, but not to her-- Her books were in the 1980s. Possible an article on her would be appropriate, but the first step is to delete this nonsense. Quickly, because the other people mentioned might be real names. DGG (talk) 23:35, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - I'd agree this looks like a hoax. No record of this person, the book or that the book won the award claimed. As DGG says, also doesn't appear to be about the author by the similar name. Shell babelfish 06:33, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
