There are two corrections to URLs that were posted above.

You can quickly remove your contents by deleting them in bulk.
bulk delete images & media http://en.support.wordpress.com/media/deleting-files/#bulk-deletion
bulk delete posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/#bulk-edit
bulk delete pages > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/edit-pages-screen/#bulk-edit

Alternatively, I can tag this thread and Staff can empty the whole blog for you, but that will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files.
Once deleted, the data cannot be recovered.

If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, please reply to confirm the name of the blog you want them to empty.

Staff can also do a Bulk Delete of content if there is more than you can handle yourself.

I am not sure if I have done so correctly. I would like to remove all reference to modernhandwriting from my settings, profile, and dashboard.
Finally, I would like to remove all existing content on the blog as I would like to start fresh.

Thank you.

Julie.
