Merteaser Mertuesday: The Merman Problem
Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized
Today’s teaser explains some of the mechanics and biology of my mermaids. I have to admit that I winced a bit when I read this excerpt from Hannah Moskowitz’s blog from her current work-in-progress, which also features a merman, and raises similar questions of biology. But, hell, if you’re writing about mermen that do it, [...]
