In 2022, a bunch of would-be writers ended up in a Facebook group created by a mysterious man only known as "Jamie". These men and women promptly started writing their tails off, and soon escaped from the trad publishing world into the indie underground.
Today, wanted by publishers everywhere, they survive as word mercenaries. If you have an anthology to fill... if you have a short story you want a critique for... if no one else can help? Well, then. If you can find them... maybe the Alpha Mercs can help.
