Not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustain article. Fails Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines, WP:ANYBIO and WP:NAUTHOR. All coverage is trivial and local. The source cited in the article is a local interest filler piece with no byline. ("Children's Book on Evel Knievel's Jump out by Local Authors".} The article seems to be a paraphrasing on this single article. The only references to 'awards' this author has won that I could find were:

  • "Book Notes". The Register Guard (Eugene, OR). May 4, 2003. Retrieved 2015-09-07 – via HighBeam Research. Bonnie Dodge of Twin Falls, Idaho, won $150 for 'Controlling the Flame.' {{cite news}}: Unknown parameter |subscription= ignored (|url-access= suggested) (help)
  • "Book Notes". The Register Guard (Eugene, OR). June 1, 2003. Retrieved 2015-09-07 – via HighBeam Research. Essay contest winners - ... in the Oregon Quarterly Essay Contest ... Second place went to Bonnie Dodge {{cite news}}: Unknown parameter |subscription= ignored (|url-access= suggested) (help)

The other awards mentioned by name in the article are minor. Being in the "Top Ten Idaho Fiction by Idaho Author Awards for 2014" or winning the ""2010 Idaho Writer's League Writer of the Year Award" does not confer notability. JbhTalk 14:17, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
