Hi, Em,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that you've started reading and enjoying some of my books. That's great! With the February publication of HYPERGIFTED, that will bring my list up to 107! That sounds like a lot, even to me! I hope you'll want to read your way right through them.

Thanks again, -----Gordon Korman-----

Gordon ,

Just a question - have you been corresponding with me via-email regarding my book The Journals of Zacharia 1905-1985, or has it been a scam by some marketing firm? If it's been a scam they've done a great job. Please let me know.

Sincerely,

Jerry Ziemer

Hi, Jerry. I'm sorry to have to tell you that has NOT been me. It must be some kind of marketing ploy. I\'ve been hearing a lot about emails like this from my writer friends. I can\'t say for sure what these people are after. The messages I\'ve seen from others have been friendly/supportive and no money has been involved. But they are definitely not genuine.

You might want to contact your internet provider or email platform to report this.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Gordon,

Thanks for the response!

Whoever\'s doing the scam is incredible. They got me hook, line, and sinker, for seven different email exchanges. Twice I asked - \"what\'s the catch\" - and their come back was always incredibly smooth, (too smooth) - which is why I reached out to your site.

Once again . . . Thanks for your come back, and have a great New Year.

P.S. If I ever figure out what their catch is, I\'ll let someone at your place know.
