Screenshot of the scam emails from fake Nicholas Sparks.
Hi, , I hope this email finds you well. I'm Nicholas Sparks, an author known for writing stories that explore love, loss, hope, and the transformative moments that shape our lives. Over the years, my novels have been fortunate enough to reach readers around the world, with many becoming New York Times bestsellers and several adapted into films. One of my most beloved works is The Notebook, which you can find here: https://a.co/d/3RrN1bx And here’s my full Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B000APGF36 What I enjoy most about being a writer aside from bringing characters to life is connecting with fellow storytellers and learning what inspires them to write. If you're open to sharing, I’d love to hear more about your work. Feel free to send your book link, website, Goodreads profile, or Amazon page. I'd be glad to take a look. Writing can often feel like a solitary journey, but building relationships with other authors makes the path far more meaningful. I look forward to discovering more about your stories and perhaps exchanging inspiration along the way. Warm regards, Nicholas Sparks Author & Storyteller New York Times Bestselling Novelist 📍: North Carolina, USA "Love is like the wind… you can’t see it, but you can feel it."

This is from 2 weeks ago, at the FreeBee Market. I'm the one with gray hair and wearing a mask. They week we had about 2 dozen cases of bread to give away. It was wild!!!!

This picture appeared in a local online newspaper. They did an article about the FreeBee Market.
2 women in yellow FreeBee aprons, standing outside in front of a table loaded with an assortment of packaged bread.

I like my Dorothy in Oz slippers. They were part of a care package from the Red Slipper Warrior package. They send the slippers and an awesome backpack to women dealing with cancer, any variety. Sadly, they lost funding and had to radically cut back their service area. #Cancer
My foot in shiny, sequined red slipper with a bow and fleece lining.

I requested a gift box from Twisted Pink, and it arrived a few days ago. I think my favorite item is the medical planner. I'll use it for my chronic conditions. Also, the protest dish towel. I may not use it, so it stays pristine. 😀

Page from medical journal, showing spaces for symptoms and medications. Another page from the medical planner, showing appointment notes. Image of dish towel with birds, doves or pigeons?, holding a sign that says "This is my protest dish towel." Brochures from different organizations that help people with cancer in general or breast cancer specifically.

Caramel is giving me the stink eye as I do my nebulizer. He usually runs away when I turn it on. It's only taken 2.5 years to get to this point. #Asthma #Cats

Ummm, yuck.

BTA, this is a romantic suspense story, not a horror or urban fantasy book.

Who knew unwrapping small packs of crayons could be so damn exhausting? Literally, small packs of 4, then putting them in pencil boxes.

I hate my 🫁. #Asthma #LifeWithAsthma
