    June 4, 2022 / 13 Comments

    Hey, TWNers! *cough* Okay so if you’ve been following the blog tour for R.M. Archer’s latest release, you might’ve noticed a certain someone was supposed to post yesterday.

Hint: it’s among the pile of “treasure.” If not, what about the paperclip?) Next up, a fun fact! Mermaid fun fact: professional mermaids is a job that actually exists! Cool, right? Okay, now for the gif . . . . via GIPHY…
