The subject's book was reviewed in the Financial Times [1], but that's the only reliable source I can find with any coverage. Does not meet WP:AUTHOR, or WP:GNG's requirement of multiple independent reliable sources. January (talk) 11:01, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, a book review is not coverage of the topic which is the person. And that is the one and only reference in the article. So, no indication of wp:notability. Also no specific even claims of notability in the article except authoring of the book. North8000 (talk) 11:31, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Other than having written a book that has received a single review, this article gives no evidence of the notability of the author. Also links to the subject's blog - swell, but having a blog does not make one notable. Bella the Ball (talk) 09:34, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
