Merc?
Well, in case you're wondering about my handle, there's a story about that. Years ago in an online writing BootCamp, the Sarge yelled at me - that I was like a blob of mercury - drop it on the floor and it rolls all over the place. Huh? You have no structure, Merc! And so the name stuck.

I think the name might have stuck for other, more substantive reasons, Merc. Thanks for the invitation, and good luck with the blog. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

A blob of mercury is pretty substantive though, Zoe. I mean, it just doesn't evaporate, or go up in hot air, or does it? Back to Chemistry 101 for me, I guess.
Best,
Merc
and it's a great nickname!
Ta, Amanda. It's sort of grown on me, or should I say I got stuck on it. Well, it hasn't wobbled off yet.
