Non notable author of 3 non-notable books, in the adjacent nominations. Reading the refs, they are pure PR or local coverage. DGG ( talk ) 01:30, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I was unable to find any significant coverage in reliable, independent sources about either this author or his books. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:55, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There is some light coverage, but not enough to really show how he's notable enough for an article. There is a concern of COI here as well, as a little digging brought up some concerns that the article creator and the author are the same person.
