M..
It's a Goodreads artifact. Apparently their system can't handle authors with the same name (though they appear to manage just fine with same-named readers). They already had an 'M' and an 'M.', so they gave me 'M..' It gets stranger still in messages where where they double it up to 'M.. M..' My nom de plume is just 'M'.
