This author does not seem to be all that notable, and the article is mostly without sources. That and this page sounds more like an advertisement than an actual informative article. ShadowCyclone talk 16:54, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. Author of a notable body of work. Her books have been reviewed, translated, and adapted for film. pburka (talk) 17:38, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Strong and speedy keep. Utter and complete failure to comply with WP:BEFORE. The first page of Google search results includes a review archive that establishes a presumption of notability. The GScholar search results show multiple examples of commentary. Randomly selected Amazon book pages, though not usable as refs, consistently show multiple reviews. A nonconstructive nomination. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. Fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong! (talk) 19:06, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, and rewrite: I understand the initial nom due to how horribly the article is written, but per the slightly harsh but true above comments she passes all basic and author notability criteria and article could be expanded extensively with a bit of source digging. Should work on that instead of deleting. GN-z11 ☎ ★ 19:26, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
:*Comment: Thanks {{u|XOR'easter}} for the rewrite! Now that that's out of the way I don't see any other possible reason for deletion. GN-z11 ☎ ★ 20:53, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Passes WP:AUTHOR: multiple books with multiple reviews apiece, etc. I did a preliminary copy-editing so that the text, while not great, is not horrible either. XOR'easter (talk) 19:54, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- KEEP Authors are notable based on the notability of what they create. Dream Focus 20:52, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep 24 books from major publishers! Gamaliel (talk) 12:46, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:HEY because of XOR'easter and AleatoryPondering's improvements. — Toughpigs (talk) 13:54, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
