Lane von Herzen: Careful Movers, California License Plate 43128K3

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.

Careful Movers, California License Plate 43128K3

OIG Hotline, please be apprised that a large moving van labeled "Careful Movers" was parked at 56 Vista Verde Way this morning, appearing to wait for shuttle transports of items from a smaller vehicle. The California license plate of this moving van was 34128K3.

No longterm residents on Vista Verde Way are vacating their homes at this time.

It appears to me that a number of FBI contractors who have been renting residences on Vista Verde Way may be in the process of leaving the area.

I hereby certify that the foregoing is true and correct.
