I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter

No, I do not want to meet a Russian girl, nor do I want to be electric in bed.
I am probably already taking more prescription meds than is good for me, so your “cheep Rx” does not appeal.
I don’t even know what a “pilules” is and I doubt it has to do with me since I think I’m missing a vital body part for that to work.
My name is not “Mr. camys_loft” and really, that could be insulting in some countries.
I know exactly what I have ordered and I don’t appreciate you telling me about a bogus order notification that will probably only download a virus onto my computer. You are probably ruining the brand-new computers of poor little old ladies. Shame on you.
You are a dummy if you think that if I get a message with a subject line of “hello” and the recipient is someone whose email address I don’t recognize, that I will blithely open your message.
Even though my last name is “Tang,” if I get a message with Chinese characters in the subject line, I automatically know the message sender is not anyone who knows me. Because my friends know I don’t even speak Japanese, much less Chinese.
I do not need 70% off Pfizer, Viagra, Microsoft, Codeine, Hydrocodone, or something you just call “HOT.”
Why would I buy a replica Rolex from you when you can’t even spell Rolex correctly in the subject line?
And finally, since I have Gmail, I can see the first line of your email message without opening it, so a subject line of “Urgent message” or “Re: Your message” or “Update” isn’t going to fool me when I can see that the actual email message is something like, “Some jerk has posted your picture on this website, so click through so I can download a spyware blood-sucking virus onto your computer and steal your identity and rack up thousands of dollars in credit card debt.”
Just GO AWAY.

Does anyone actually by from spammers? Just wondering if there is truly a profit in annoying the world?

If they spent more time on legal pursuits they could probably make more money than scaming and no jail time.
Oh, and I so enjoy the ones that come as no sender. Or, the supposed military dude needing me to take this cash he got over in Iraq so he can get it in America. LOL!
Even if the world got off course and all life on earth perished, there would still be robots sending out spam for centuries to come.
Sometimes I think they are the clueless ones thinking so many people will fall for these things. Although I do feel sorry for the people who don't know better and get gypped by the scams.
