ALT The book cover for Josh Closs's "The Hartvane Chronicles Book I: The Outcast and the Chosen One" We see a mermaid with copper skin and shaggy green shoulder-length green hair, swimming away from a small town atop a pillar jutting out of the Abyss below. She has a determined look on her face. She carries a sizeable backpack over her shoulders and a cutlass on her hip, attached to a sash around her waist. On her arms, her skin is scarred with several large red X marks.

ALT The cover for "The Adventures of Harmonia & Melodika, A mini-comic by Josh Closs" shows the title written in different segments. "The Adventures of..." is written on a banner hanging behind two ten-year-old mermaid girls. The girl on the left, with shaggy-short kelp-green hair, boldly holds up two signs, one which reads "Harmonia!" in bright-red paint over her, and another that has a green ampersand painted on it next to her. She's smiling broadly and looking over at her sister, who's holding a sign that reads "Melodika" in a subdued blue paint. She has an apprehensive look on her face as she smiles towards the viewer, and her kelp-green hair is held back in a ponytail.

You bet I'm ready to help you out, Father! I love being in the library! Some silly people might've thought I wanted to work the kelp fields. Can you imagine!? 5: Father: Oh. Hello, Harmonia. I, ah, expected you, obviously. So, shall we get started with your training? I'm rebinding this book right now, can you get me-- 6: Harmonia: Bye, I'm gonna go sort the books by color now! Yippee!! 7: Father: ...Okay, Coronith. I can take it. How screwed am I? Coronith: Depends on if you're willing to do what I say or not.

With, like, dirt and manual labor? Panel 4: Coronith: "She is quite aware of that, Mitchell. Melodika wishes to be a well-rounded individual, and believes farm work would help that goal." Panel 5: Melodika, holding a hoe upside-down: "Yeah! I'm ready to farm!" Papa: "Other way around, Mel." Panel 6: Melodika: "...Ha ha ha, just a funny little goof I did, ha ha!" Panel 7: Melodika: "Farming Ahoy!" Panel 8: Papa Hartvane and Coronith watch wordlessly. Coronith is stifling a laugh. Panel 9: Papa: "We had this coming, didn't we?" Coronith: "You did. Birthdays are for real presents." Papa: "Heard loud and clear."
