The mermaids are back for another year with a fun roster of events for you all!
For this year's MerMay, we'll be presenting you with two prompt sets (containing three words and a prompt each). You will pick one and write your story based on that. But that's not all because the mermaids have prepared a fun little side activity down below and you'll just have to keep reading to find out more.
Get ready to reimagine your mermaids with us once again!
