Hello, I recently got involved with the whole mermaid thing from an outsider's standpoint and although I do like swimming and mythology quite a bit, I can say with some degree of certainty I won't be going out to purchase a tail anytime soon.
But your hobby/subculture/career(for some) has really piqued my interest and I'm looking to do some research into the lives of you "modern merfolk".
The end result (hopefully) involves me writing a book on interesting subcultures like yours (and quite likely, many of the others that are out there. Depends on how much material I can get. :P )
So, is anyone interested in perhaps participating in an interview and giving consent to have it published, should I manage to finish this project? Hobbyists and career mermaids would both provide excellent material, so don't be shy.

I'm pretty new to the community, I was hired by Mermaid Rentals last May/June. If you want the opinion of a new mermaid, than willing to help!

I'll consent. I don't have much experience, but I've got a lot done in my short time at mermaiding. :)

Okay, I believe I have contacted all of you with some preliminary questions. Depending on your answers to these, I might give follow-up and then we'll see how it goes from there. :)

I'd be happy to help you out with this! I enjoy sharing my experiences swimming open ocean with rays, sharks, sea turtles, fish, etc. while teaching others about the dangers they face. In being a mermaid, it is like an attraction to teach and educate. :-)

Gah. Kinda overwhelmed here. :P I sent out another batch of prelims. I'm not going to close the request because I figure the more material I get, the better. I can't promise how much I'll use, though. Depends mostly on what you have to offer.
So yeah, I'll PM you if I'm interested.

I'm interested in this, if you need another interview. I'm into mermaiding as a hobby, for now.

To my existing interview subjects:
Sorry I'm behind on the responses right now. I'm not a mermaid like yourselves, I'm a programmer, so it's hard to keep track of the forum here. Plus, I have family over for the holidays. I will get back to you once things simmer down.
To any potential futures:
I can't promise anything at this point (and didn't promise anything to those before) but "I'll try".
