And here's the picture for the day!
Since she had been taken aboard the ship by her stepfather, the lovely
mermaids had been her only company. Soon she'd join them, swim away.

Ooh, the evil stepfather drives his stepdaughter away...a classic story.
Nice one Sylvia, Soon she will be with the Mermaids. Mine is posting in a couple of minutes.
Oooh, I want to join the mermaids, too! Fantastic, Sylvia! Really great, imaginative stuff!
Hi Sylvia! Sorry for the absence, but after a long weekend break, I was working abroad last week...
The new header is wonderful!!
Have a great week!
Perfect story this week. Love the emotions felt in me from your story.
Have a good week ahead. I think e're going to cool off a bit.
Very elegiac, Sylvia. Great job! Hope you have a good week.
Very imaginative and sad, but fits the picture.
Wow Sylvia, I love your imagination.
Now that's excellent! Good luck girlie -- I hope her new life is all she dreams it will be!
Wish you could go more characters on this.
...and profoundly into the deep?
Very well done my friend. Very deep and touching I think. This could have such a good continuation. Well done my friend. :) A side of you that I like very well. Well I like all sides actually :) Have a great week ahead :)
Good job. The young girl does appear to be so wistful.
O how lovely! I too thought that the young girl was longing for a change of scenery!
fascinating!
Nice one Sylvia. Love it.
So sad, but touching. I loved the feelings your story conveyed.
Have agreat week.
Oooo. Swim away with the mer-folk. That sounds so tempting.
Good story
But soon her prince will come.... My gal not so nice!140 Story
Perhaps after swimming with the fishes, she'll change her tune?
I can imagine many wanting to do that. Nicely done.
So sad, but perhaps she will find true happiness with her mermaid friends.
very surreal Sylvia! Loved it! So spiritual!
oh! I was not expecting that! Very nice shock factor
Hi Sylvia
triste ma bella la storia :-))
Buona giornata.
Aww, that's rather sad.
She'll be happier with the mermaids.
Such Victorian melancholy. Really suits the illustration!
Evil stepfathers, sounds like a seafaring twist on Cinderella! :)
I had total brain freeze on this one. Love your story, though!
Great take on this week's pic. Made me a bit sad though. Poor girl.
Thanks for sharing.
