Today is the day that underwater lovers have been waiting for, the dawn of the fourth annual Splash into Summer!
I began this yearly event out of my love for mermaids and their
splashy friends. This year, I'm pleased to announce that Emily from Oh, Magic Hour and her co-blogger Danie are co-hosting the event! And they're mermaid newbies! We shall corrupt these girls to our ways, yes we shall!
We have so many reviews, guest posts, author interviews, discussions, giveaways, and more for you. I hope you have as much fun as us for the next two weeks! Stop back every day to see something new!
On each post, you'll see something like this:
When you see this, you can click the links to return to the two Splash Main Pages, where you can access the schedule, navigate to posts that have already gone up, see what's coming next, and find out how you can get involved! (I am going to TRY to get better at updating Tumblr. SWEAR! ^^;;) Also, feel free to snag the button or banner to share on your sidebars, or in your own Splashy posts! (Both are fully resizable.)
There's also a Participation Linky for anyone posting about mermaids, selkies, or any other underwater beings during the next two weeks who wants to link up!
I'll continue updating my own schedule with what's going on at A Backwards Story right here on this post, because that's probably easier for some of you to keep up with, right? So mark this post for the next two weeks! You'll also be able to see Oh, Magic Hour's daily schedule here!
