So… I got a happy cupcake award from Joyce… 
First of all – Thanks!
Now I'm supposed to list 10 things that make me happy.
Since this is my writing blog… I'll come up with 10 things that make me happy when I write.
- When an idea hits that's just too good to pass up.
- When everything falls into place.
- When the right word comes, at the right time.
- When the dialog makes me laugh while I write it.
- When the action flows and you can practically feel the punches.
- When someone tells me they love the hero / heroine (or both)
- When someone finishes a beta read — and wants book 2.
- When I can write ten thousand words and later sit there and think "Where did that come from?"
- When I get a rejection with details, rather than a form rejection.
- I'd love to say when I get a contract / published, but that hasn't happened yet!
So those are my ten things.
What are yours?

What, ten?

When I write I'm permanently unhappy. I'm happy when:
1. I finally send the bloody hated thing off because it means I don't have to look at or think about it any more
2. When the bloody hated thing is accepted because it means someone thinks it's not as awfully stupid as (whispers) it actually is
3. When I get paid for it because my bank will never know how awfully stupid the bloody hated thing really was
Thank you very much, it's a great one!
