This author has put out three books, none of which have received a large enough amount of coverage to where LaChance would merit his own article. The only two somewhat decent sources I've added to the article - the first one is only semi-usable since the article isn't about LaChance himself. Most of the sources out there are ones like this one, where he's quoted but isn't the focus of the article itself. There's some mild coverage for the paranormal group, but it all seems to be local and fairly sparse. I don't really think that he passes notability guidelines as a whole, even if we were to try to add in information about his group. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:34, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

- Delete Only two books in libraries, one held in 30, one in 1. No Kirkus reviews. I didn't check Booklist after that. I found a radio show interview [1], and an interview on St Louis' Fox station [2] (less than 3 minutes). I'm just not seeing author notability here. LaMona ( talk) 23:00, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah... if Kirkus didn't review him then it's unlikely the others did. Coast to Coast AM is considered WP:FRINGE so it's not usable, although it's wildly popular. Sad thing is, I ended up coming across this since I was looking to buy one of his books, the first one he put out, and then saw that he didn't pass NAUTHOR.
