Lane von Herzen: Combatting Forgeries

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.

Combatting Forgeries

OIG Hotline, there is an allegation that the FBI or its affiliates have forged a check, checks or documentation utilizing my signature.

For clarification, I am herewith placing all of my donations pertaining to my awards on my blog. These consist of a donation to the Smithsonian Institution for an exhibit regarding my case, a donation to the Smithsonian Institution to establish in independent endowment, a donation to PBS to establish an independent endowment, a donation to the National Parks of the United States for their maintenance and expansion, a donation to establish and expand the use of fusion energy within the United States, and an allotment to the secure provision of 20 or more copies of investigative reports of my case, with previous stipulations, to 20 or more trusted recipients.

I further stipulated that any awards determined by the OIG Hotline for my direct relatives that had been misappropriated be refunded from my account on one occasion only, with the precondition that all ethics and conflict of interest regulations be fully met, in addition to the requirement that I be notified in advance, that I oversee the security of investments within a trust structure dedicated to my children, and that awards not equal more than 1B per person.

I left to the OIG Hotline's discretion the question of an award to my hxxxxxd, albeit with guidelines, given the suffering he has endured at the hands of the FBI.

There are no other allocations from awards extended to me as of this writing.

There are no political donations.

Any assertions to the contrary represent false statements and likely pertain to forgeries.

Please disallow any and all such attempts.

Thank you for your support regarding this critical matter.

Most sincerely,
