As I feared when we discussed this article early today, I'm not really sure she is notable... I think that's why you can't find suitable references to establish notability.
I'm also a little concerned that a large portion (over a third) of the article is copied word for word from the publisher's biography of her (the 2nd reference). It's only one and a half sentences and its the obvious way to convey that information, so it wouldn't usually be a problem, but the article is just so short that it is quite significant. It seems the biggest challenge for editing workshops is finding suitable topics for people to create articles about (I think a lot of people just edit existing articles, which is much easier). It's particularly difficult for Monmonth since pretty much everything notable in the town already has an article!
