A few days ago, Jon DeHart, of online newshub "The Diplomat", approached me, wanting to interview me about mermaiding and to find out more about our culture. In the end, we dove so deep with him that he had to break the article into TWO parts, lol. He's a great guy, though- and I think he wrote this article beautifully!
Here's part one, in which he writes about mermaid mythos, and features some gorgeous quotes by Carolyn Turgeon, mermaid writer.

In Part 2, which comes out tomorrow, "The Diplomat" will feature an interview with my mermaid alias (Syrena), and I'd also asked Raina to share some of her experienced insights! Looking forward to seeing how it comes out. Also- a big bubbly thank you to Merman Dan and PearlieMae, who have been a source of comic relief and occasional embarrassing public laughter for me in the past few days.
