"The Real Prize": A retelling of the myth of Atalanta and the Golden Apples
August 2021, Sing, Goddess! A YA Anthology of Greek Myth Retellings
About the Story: Atalanta is a princess of the merfolk who would rather be a warrior than royalty. When her father, the king, tells her it's time to marry, she agrees to a contest, the winner of which will be her groom. Then she craftily designs a race in which she knows no merman could beat her--in fact, they could die trying. But the risk doesn't stop three determined young mermen from signing up, one of whom has some clever plans of his own.
