"Taln" (pronounced talon) was a nickname I was given by someone I was collaborating on a novel with many years ago. We were in a usenet group and I gained a repututation for dealing with flamers. His explanation was "like a cat with velvet paws she strokes, but beware her shredding claws." It stuck - even in real life.
After being compared to a mother grizzley bear when I defend my friends and causes, and with a silver streak of hair present since my teens "SilverGrizzly" was added as a surname. Here as simply SG.
Since I have used this name everywhere except on government and employment documents for so long, some times it doesn't seem like just a nickname.
Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life. ********************* Find your voice; silence will not protect you.
