Pettitjohn does not appear notable as either a talent manager or as an author. Sources are either poor quality (not RS, not significant coverage, or both of these things) or are about other notable people and not Pettijohn. No indication from BEFORE or from sources in the article (mostly to booksellers) that his book is notable and thus no claim to notability for NUATHOR.

First welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you find your time here productive. If you haven't already you might want to read WP:RS as it talks about how to identify reliable sources. Reliable sources are required to identify notability - the standard wikipedia uses for what can have an article. While an article can have a lot of references, if those references aren't reliable sources they don't help show notability. That's why I asked which sources provide notability. If you have questions about reliable sources and/or notability feel free to ask me on my talk page. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 21:03, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I have to agree with nominator and E.M.Gregory. The people he represents as a talent manager may be notable (Howroyd certainly is), but that doesn't contribute to notability for him. There are no reliable sources in the article that offer significant coverage of Pettijohn, and I failed to find any to add. Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NAUTHOR.
