So sorry about that, Iona! I sent you a friend request but I think maybe you didn't see it, or maybe my FB is just screwed up. I also considered messaging you here, but we were dealing with the h**king problem (they that shall not be named), so I didn't know if it'd get through, and I didn't know if your mermaid page was dealing with so many fan mail messages that it wouldn't get through to you in time. :P Next time I'll just try all avenues! The reporter was working on a pretty tight schedule, so he needed people to give him their answers ASAP.
I have two Mandarin newspapers (lol, so cute) who interviewed me as well, and I mentioned the international mers, but they weren't so keen on contacting other mer sources cuz then they'd have to translate that into Mandarin as well. But because Singapore is small, and so the mermaid wave is- to put it tritely- making a bit of a wave in such a small place-- like I've said before, if anything comes up again, I really, really would love to rope more people into it! It's just hard coordinating time differences and response times.
p.s I have watched your paradiso swim about a gazillion times and it is lovely.
