Lane von Herzen: 20 Jurat Notarized Affidavits for OIG Hotline Investigations Division

My Third Novel's Conclusion, My Heartbreak

My heart begins to break when I think about completing this particular book -- because this narrative has sustained me like no other story I've known. It's both more personal and more universal than my other works. But beyond memory and archetype, it's a cri-de-coeur about needing to become the person one is destined to be. And in the writing, I have met my own life's work, my own fated journey -- having the sense all the while that the pages are suffused with a resonance, an energy, an electrified field that defies explanation. Writers hope and pray to be overtaken by a work in this way -- to be conscripted into passionate service of a profound story. To experience it even once in a lifetime seems a great privilege. I still have several months before this novel is complete, and this constitutes my reprieve. Because I'm not ready for the beauty to end.

20 Jurat Notarized Affidavits for OIG Hotline Investigations Division

May 23, 2023

OIG Hotline, this evening I faxed to your Investigations Division 20 newly notarized affidavits for a total of 143 pages.

I will re-send this information tomorrow during your regular business hours to ensure that tampering with this material has not occurred.

I will also post transmission confirmations tomorrow.

The most serious immediate concerns, due to recent developments, are described within affidavits entitled "Wells Fargo" and "Ron Laurino and Panton Plumbing."

Due to near term pressures, your assistance on both of these fronts would be greatly appreciated.

Most sincerely,
