I stumbled across this article through her book series Cupcake Diaries, which is also currently up for deletion. The issue with the book series is the same as the author: there are just little to no reliable sources out there to show that this author passes WP:AUTHOR. A search for the author brings up the typical junk hits, merchant sites, primary sites, and non-usable blog reviews and mentions. She's published a kid's series, but unfortunately just publishing (no matter how many books they might have done) does not in itself give notability. It just makes it more likely that reliable sources will be found, which I wasn't able to discover. Tokyogirl79 (talk)

- Delete—There is little to no coverage of this author in RS. No reviews in notable publications, small holdings in libraries. This is almost certainly a case of not yet, but...not yet.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 23:18, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
