So during MerPalooza I had a really awesome conversation with a writer from the Huffington Post, and she just joined MerNetwork! Her name is Brenda Peterson, and this is her profile: http://mernetwork.com/index/member.php?1250-Brenda-Peterson
She has recently written a sci-fi futuristic mermaid novel called Drowning World and it looks like a really cool read. Here is the Amazon page: http://www.amazon.com/Drowning-World-Aquantis-Series-ebook/dp/B008SCOVKW
And I've just re-posted the description here:
Two different people from two very different worlds. Can a mermaid and a human boy find love? Can they survive in his world and hers?
A regal and highly trained young mermaid, Marina, is on her first spy mission to Skyeworld in 2020. She comes ashore on Siesta Key, Florida where she meets feisty Lukas, a proud Cuban refugee. Marina will have to choose between the advanced civilization of Aquantis, where she has been chosen as a High Priestess, and her love for Lukas and his dangerously polluted SkyeWorld.
The DROWNING WORLD is a haunting and mesmerizing saga set in a vivid future of rising seas, floating cities, and Flood Lands. Marina’s magic and skill save Lukas’ life. But can she save her own against a lifelong nemesis from her world?
This is her Kickstarter, for those interested: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1770521679/dive-into-the-future-in-a-sci-fi-fantasy-the-drown/posts
It all looks like really exciting stuff so please help spread the word around!
MerPalooza was her first exposé into the mer-community, and I'd love to let her see how awesome we all are. Help her feel welcome!
