Beware of fake accounts

It's troubling when someone tries to friend/connect with me here and they're impersonating an author, especially since I'm an author myself and know exactly how this violates the community.

Just had two more attempts recently. Both accounts created this past September, bios claiming to be authors of specific books. Takes like 30 seconds of investigating to find the real author page, complete with t Read more of this blog post »

“Stay curious, stay courageous, and most of all, stay engaged with the wonderful possibilities life still holds.”
JS Warner

“Writing remains one of the most accessible forms of mental exercise available to us. It requires no special equipment, no membership fees, no perfect weather conditions. Just you, something to write with, and the willingness to engage your mind in one of its most natural and powerful activities.”
JS Warner

“Truth may be buried, delayed or disguised, but it carries within itself an unbreakable determination to surface. Time is merely its ally, never its enemy.”
