“Ummm… the example notes say… salt makes craters! I think somewhere in the watercolor book it talks about a salt technique.” Thalia shrugged.

Tal grinned and nodded. “Seriously.”

“Okay… Watercolor, check. Newsletter, check. Now let’s finish that final proofread of Flourishing Fictions — Let’s go read our book.”

“Yes,” said Cal and Nia together. “Yes.”
