Article contains one source that demonstrates notability (review of subject's book in The Korea Herald). Other sources are connected to Wills himself (his blog, etc.); there were other "sources", but they were blogs and comments on Amazon. The book itself is self-published. Insufficient independent evidence of notability, thus does not meet WP:GNG or WP:AUTHOR. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:25, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The single review of this book is not, to me, enough to bolster its author into notability. Self-publishing confers no notability in either fiction or blogging. I can find no further reliable sources. Ubelowme _U ^Me 19:04, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• If the book was the subject of this article, I would have given some leeway, but since it's the author I could not find verifiable sources that give him significant coverage. Therefore delete for failing WP:GNG. - Mailer Diablo 10:19, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete MAde a search on Google and could no find some sources to support notability. —Hahc21 15:31, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
