We Make Tea, Shimmer #14, December 2011 (as M Ferguson)
Nandie in the Wall, A cappella Zoo, October 2011 (as M Ferguson)
And in Meryl Ferguson’s short-short horror-ish “Nandie In the Wall,” young Jeffrey’s sister Nandie has died. Jeffrey leaves food for Nandie, who lives in the wall now, skeletal, dried-out, and in parts, until the police come and take Nandie, and their father, away. The story packs a lot of strange power into a short space. The Review Review
Siren Song, Space and Time Magazine #114, Summer 2011
“Siren Song” by Merrilee Faber is something of a fairy story. Mana Nama is a huge sea beast caught by the minions of the emperor of the land. A young girl named Birami forms a relationship with the beast but is ordered to make the beast (now in reduced form) kiss the emperor and restore his health. Things do not go as planned in this brilliantly imaginative piece of writing. SFRevu

Hello! I found your blog through Kayla’s blog! Pleased to meet you! (kinda jealous about the “chasing turtles” profession…sounds very Discovery channel) ;)
Nowhere near as exciting as it sounds :) Welcome, Liza! Nice to meet you.
Hi Merrilee,
I’m @HiveMindWriters, thank you kindly for adding me over on Twitter. I’ve bookmarked you to stop by and read during my coffee breaks. :) Oh, and love you quote about writers turning coffee into manuscripts. lol
Hi Alexandra, welcome to my blog. I hope it goes well with coffee :)
Hi Merrilee,

Hi,
I’m Andy from Shack’s Comings and Goings and I am contacting you because you have been kind enough to believe in me and follow the blog.
I hope you don’t mind me leaving this here but I havn’t found an e-mail address.
Some good news is that the blog is slowly improving and
Some bad news is that the blog is slowly improving.
Which means that soon I will have problems on BlogSpot to do the things that I hope to do with the blog.
So the blog is moving over to http://www.andyshack.com Yippee!
Now I can do all sort of things that I could not do before and be able to offer a better experience to the visitors.
But what I can’t do is copy over the followers from the old blog, (Sad Face)
So I am sorry but for you to keep getting updates from Shack’s Comings and Goings, I am afraid you will need to visit the new blog and click on the Google follow button again.
If you wish to no longer follow the blog, then I am sorry to lose you and thank you for your follow till now.
Wishing you health and happiness.
Andy
