An illustrator alerted me to the attached email. Someone is impersonating me! Offering #kidlit illustrators fake deals!

This is not me! The deal-structure/schedule is insane. The deadline is quite friendly?! 10 picture books in 3 years?!

Please let me know if you receive an email like this!

CAMP CRYPTID! Cryptid-obsessed Gust doesnt need friends - they don’t ‘get’ him. But when he finds out a cryptids last sighting was in the nearby Mills Woods, Gust must join the Mills Summer Camp just so he can investigate. Will he find a monster, or something better - a friend? #DVPit #MG #GN #DVArt

CAMP CRYPTID - Cryptid-obsessed Gust doesnt need friends - they don’t ‘get’ him. But when he finds out a cryptids last location was in the nearby Mill Woods, Gust reluctantly joins the summer camp that sits on that spot. Will he find this elusive cryptid, or something way better? #DVPit #MG #GN #TV
