Hi everyone! I'm Stari, at least for now... official mermaid name is in the works! I'm from Virginia.
My story is probably a bit different from a lot of people's on here. I kinda got thrown into mermaiding headfirst. I followed my friend to NC Mermania this year knowing absolutely nothing about the mermaiding community. I told everyone there that I was just along for the ride and that I was a boring mortal. I was not expecting to totally fall in love. The general atmosphere, the quality of tails and other works of art, the creativity and positivity that was everywhere I turned... those things were enough to get me interested. It was a convention, though, so of course everyone was going to be excited... I was bubbly but still "just along for the ride" until I got to try on my friend's tail and it was just like something snapped. It was just so fun!
So, long story short, it's been a few months and I've spent a bit of money, and this is me now!

Just a basic FinFun tail for now, but it's lovely and I'm looking forward to getting to swim in it, as well as making a better top and some accessories. First up is a circlet!
I'm also looking forward to meeting more of you guys!
