Just found out that my article “Diving into the Depths: Exploring Interpersonal Relationships in Mermaid Fanfiction” has now been published online in The Journal of Fandom Studies. 🧜‍♀️📚

The article explores friendship, chosen family and interpersonal relationships in mermaid fanfiction, and forms part of my PhD research.

What I value most is the opportunity to research subjects that genuinely fascinate me!
