I'm sorry this post was delayed for so long. After all the intense blogging due to the event and a series of back-to-back blog tours, I took a little break. Plus, this post was DAUNTING! It's a huge monster, lol.
Here's a wrap-up of everything that went on during FTF!
Want EVEN MORE fairy tales? I'm merging my weekly feature Mythological Mondays into "A Twist in the Tail," which will come out on Tuesdays. It will feature all things mythological, as well as fairy tales, mermaids, etc. I like this mash-up better than a bunch of features for these things. I'm just waiting for a friend to finish making my banner, and then we're good to go!
Love mermaids, selkies, and other underwater beings? Come back this summer for my third annual Splash into Summer (dates coming soon)...
Here's a peek at what we did our first and second summer!
Splash, like FTF, which will feature more reviews, guest posts, author interviews, giveaways, and more!
