Delete: Writer's Showcase Press is a vanity publisher equivalent to iUniverse and Lulu.com. Amazon sales rank is 5,767,789, which means essentially no sales, and the listing has no reviews. A quick Google search doesn't pull up any notice of this book, let alone reviews from reliable sources. Essentially self-published + no sale + no notice = no notability. —Quasirandom (talk) 22:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Extensive news and Google searches turned up exactly one review of the book and it had been written by the author! Non-notable book from a vanity press. - Dravecky (talk) 02:39, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as has no reliable secondary sources to demonstrate notability. --Gavin Collins (talk) 09:55, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Quasirandom. 110 ghits is a bad sign also. If this book does well, revisit of course. Hobit (talk) 22:21, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
