WP:AUTHOR has clear guidelines on creative professionals, and the subject doesn't currently meet them. Not a groundbreaking figure, not known for creating a significant technique, and doesn't have significant critical attention. Library holdings don't factor into this—there are plenty of works that are widespread but remain |non-notable. As Publisher's Weekly is a trade magazine that anonymously reviews over six thousand titles a year in two hundred words each, I can't take an assertion that it can confer notability seriously; it's rare that a genre novel that ships to bookstores nationally has ''not'' been reviewed by Publisher's Weekly or an equivalent trade media outlet. As far as the book mentions, looking at them for more than a few moments convinces me that they are trivial and mere list-style mentions. No prejudice on inclusion if ''significant'' critical attention can be found paid to the author's works, but so far everything that's been found is fairly run of the mill for a non-notable author of genre fiction. —&nbsp
