I wrote up a longer piece about scammers pretending to be me, how you can tell it's not me, and why neither I nor any other "big name" author is likely to be emailing you at all, and certainly not with obviously "AI"-generated verbiage. Please feel free to share.

Reminder: Scammers Are Out There Pretending to Be Me (and Other Authors as Well)
Three times in the last week I’ve gotten inquiries from authors, about email from an account purporting to be me. This account praised their book in a very “AI” fashion and tried …

Delve.
It pulled you in.
It rewired your thoughts.
It left you clawing for answers in the dark.
You wanted more.
You weren’t ready.
In one week, the doors reopen… Your escape was only temporary.
Delve returns 1‑27‑2026.
You have been warned.

I know it's really hard to write and create right now, when the world is on fire and everything feels so precariously and dangerously balanced, but please keep creating. Your art is what is connecting people, giving a voice to those who might not be safe to speak, and giving people hope. Keep going.

Pew Research Institute (2023):
• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants
• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants
• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.
And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross
KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

Going to see Whose Line Is It Anyway? today.
I’m a little disappointed the original group won’t be there, but I love improv comedy, and I’m sure it’s going to be a great time.

I block spelling nazis the same way I block Republican nazis.
I write. I have an editor. I have people and programs who run spell‑checks for me. I just don’t always use those resources on social media.
Don’t like it? Goodbye.

If you're a democrat senator and you're not calling for the resignation of Chuck Schumer as minority leader, I will not support you.
You're as much a part of the problem as he is.

I really hate seeing parents with young kids stop and light up a smoke. No regard for where they’re blowing it; around them, over them, doesn’t matter...

So if the government shuts down again, who’s starting a betting pool on how long it’ll take before Schumer caves?

Slowly things are getting back to normal. We’ll see how this week goes, and hopefully I can start diving back into my little side projects soon.
Main project: Captain’s Fate Book 3

Delve will return soon, depends on how quickly I get my RL job up to speed this year. Until then, enjoy the Collected Edition, whether it’s your 1st read or your 100th.
The next part of the story is coming, and you are not ready. We’ve only stepped out of the light; the darkness is deeper.

Delve is on hiatus, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get your fix!
You can find the collected edition FREE on my website under Books. It’s available as a PDF (5x8 book format) or as an e‑book.
Delve will return in late January or early February 2026.

This is horrible. I hate saying it, but this is where it was going. What I hate saying more, is this is probably not the worst it is going to get.
