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.
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.
and it’s a great nickname!
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
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!Zoe
