Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a musician and writer, with no particularly strong claim of notability under either WP:NMUSIC or WP:AUTHOR and no reliable source coverage about her in media to support it -- the only "references" here are a YouTube video and the self-published website of a literary magazine that published some of her writing, so these are not reliable or independent sources. As always, neither writers nor musicians are guaranteed Wikipedia articles just because they happen to exist -- reliable source coverage in media, properly supporting a credible claim of notability, has to be present for an article to become earned.

Additional independent media sources found and added. Individual has professional credits in her industry. (talk) 17:51, 22 April 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.148.19 (talk)
:No, you haven't added any new reliable sources; you've added blogs. And having "professional credits in her industry" is not, in and of itself, a free pass over Wikipedia's inclusion criteria either — every single person in her industry always has professional credits in the industry, because they wouldn't be in the industry if they didn't. Our notability criteria are passed by being the subject of real coverage in real media (i.e. not blogs) which verifies one or more specific accomplishments (i.e. awards, verifiable chart success, etc.) that pass a Wikipedia inclusion criterion.
