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.

Apparent FBI Attempts to Perpetrate Further Falsified Law Enforcement Reporting

OIG Hotline, please be apprised of an email sent to your attention in my gmail account, lanemacwilliams@gmail.com from the same address, with copies sent to lmacwilliams77419@gmail.com and lmacwilliams7417@gmail.com, with a date/time stamp of today, September 8, 2023 at 1:50 AM Pacific time.  This communication bears a subject heading beginning with the words "ATTN: OIG Hotline."

Further, please be aware of an apparent attempt to prompt me to call a number in Los Angeles through the following notification, ostensibly from PayPal, though I no longer have a PayPal account.


This apparent order confirmation lists the Order ID as lanemacwilliamss@gmail.com and claims a purchase of "Nortone_360" for $786.  

It further states, "Your security subscription has been seamlessly renewed today to ensure top-notch security and services."

At the conclusion of this communication, the following text appears:  "Altered your brain?  Despite our best efforts, we cannot change your order.  To cancel, reach out to our Customer Service for further guidance.

Contact us at: 1-(818)-(491)-(3357)

This communication is listed as originating with Ellie Larson (guiscanecindess@gmail.com) at 7:27 AM this morning, September 8, 2023 and bears the following subject heading:  "Payment confirmation product 64395493ref of items."

Clearly, the average person is going to call the 818 number, which I believe would constitute an error contributing to falsified law enforcement reporting perpetrated by the FBI.

Instead of pursuing this route, I will call my credit card companies to ascertain whether a charge for $786 was attempted this morning.

I will update this post with further information.

Most sincerely,


Lane MacWilliams
