The paper "Caught in the Act: Observations of the Double-mode RR Lyrae V338 Boo During the Disappearance of a Pulsation Mode" by Kenneth Carrell et al. has been accepted by the Astrophysical Journal. The paper should also be posted in arxiv before too long. Combining TESS and AAVSO photometry, the paper is a symbiosis of space and ground observations, and owes much to the AAVSO members who appear as authors and in the acknowledgements. As noted in SPP Newsletter Number 1, observations of V338 Boo have been continuing this year, and it will be interesting to see how the star is behaving now. -- Horace Smith
