Hmmm. This could be enlightening.
Five fabulous moments in my life:
Man, I've had so many fabulous moments, it's hard to choose.
Well, one, two and three are easy--the days my sons were born and my wedding day. Nothing tops these.
But the day I received "the call" from Samhain ranks way up there. I'd been dreaming about being a published author for twenty years. When I got the call, I started crying, hit my knees and said my thanks. Then I proceeded to blubber my news to anyone who would listen (and a few customers who were trapped next to me in the coffee line). When I stepped outside that morning, I found one of those deflated helium balloons on my front lawn, how it got there, I haven't a clue. It said "Happy Birthday!"
Two other fab moments (these tie for 5th) was when I had my book release party and my book signing. I loved these events because I got to personally thank the people who supported me. Ahh, so great.
Five things I love:
My family and friends.
Long walks.
Warm baths.
Chocolate.
That exquisite moment when the characters rip the story out of my hands and start living.
Five things that I hate:
Hate is such a strong word. Can we call it dislike?
I dislike it when drivers talk on their cell phones! Especially when I am crossing in the crosswalk with my kids. GRRRR.
Bullying of any kind.
Rudeness.
Meanness.
Housework.
Hmm, maybe hate was the write word after all.
Thank you for this award.
I will be sending it on to other bloggers who must deserve it more than I do.
Smooches!
