But she’s squeeeeeing in spirit, I know it.

I just did a post on this topic myself. Fantastic idea. 🙂

I’m glad to see that you pointed out the light touch necessary with weather right away. When used well, weather does add a special something to fiction. I’m sure you and Becca will provide tons of idea starters. 🙂

Love the new feature!
