Lane von Herzen: Apparently Fraudulent Credit Card Charges By a Third Party

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.

Apparently Fraudulent Credit Card Charges By a Third Party

OIG Hotline, please note that, in order to clear all debt from all credit cards, I paid the $49.99 in apparently fraudulent charges on card 1674. While these charges are being further investigated, my credit cards are once again clear.

This is to once again confirm that all of my conduct, communications, subscriptions, purchases, actions, and intentions, online and elsewhere, have been and continue to be honorable and lawful in every way, shape and form.

I hereby certify that the foregoing is true and correct.
