In addition to elaborating on each of these themes, CC will be taking requests (and welcomes criticism) regarding her posts.
What do you want to see more/less of, darlings?
Are CC's posts too long/too short/just right?
CC loves your comments, reads every single one, and makes every effort to answer queries in a timely fashion!
