Top Ten Things That Make Your Wip Rock!

I wasn't experienceing writers block exactly. I was just having a lack of enthusiasm for what I was writing. So I decided to think up ten reasons why I love my book and see if it got me back to writing. And you know what? It worked! So here's the top ten reasons I'm writing my WIP again:
1)Brooding hero
2)Heroine's nine older brothers
3) Crazy uncle
4)Friends
5)The black moment
6)First kiss in the moonlight
7)Prunella and John
8)The heroine's nine older brothers
9)The Lady of the Lake
10)Bath(place or thing? You decide)
11)The heroine's nine older brothers!!!(This one just sort of crept up on me.lol)

So, this week ,tell me ,what are the top ten things that make your WIP rock?
What you write just might surprise you.

Historical Historicals

I have noticed over the years that there are a bevy of readers out there that absolutely despise any little aspect of a historical romance that isn't, well, historical.
When I wrote the first draft of my WIP I felt I already knew enough about the Regency to get by on my own(insert laugh track here). Later a contest judge informed me that I had been a little, er, a lot wrong.
So, on my second and now third revisions I actually started researching*g*. And I came to see what others had seen before me, that many writers out there were getting historically incorrect books published. Many of these published authors I loved and had on my keeper shelf.
I soon found, though, that the fact that they were historically inaccurate didn't taint the book for me. I love these authors and always will.
So, this leads into my question: Do you forgive historical inaccuracies if the story is good? Do you mind modern character's living in, say, Elizabethan England? And while we're at it, what are some touches that make you feel sucked into the historical period you're reading about?

You Can't put That in a Romance Novel!

Recently I began revising my first WIP. It was going along nicely when I realized there was a whole new element to the plot I hadn't seen before. I personally think this element makes it unpublishable. So, tell me what, to you, is something you can't put in a romance novel? For me it's cheating heroes. Infidelity is a big no-no for me and strips the leading man of the word hero.

Romantic Moments

He was being drenched by the rain, searching everywhere in the dirty alley for my lost Cat. I came up behind him soggy from running down the street and called out "Cat!" Suddenly there was a low meow from behind a stack of boxes. It was my cat!! I tucked Cat in my trench coat and turned to Him slowly. We'd been through so much together. First we were only friends but somewhere along the way it had developed into something more. Tears welled in my eyes. I walked to Him slowly, He pulled me close, keeping Cat lightly cupped between us, and He kissed me. And the whole audience burst into tears...

Ok, extra points for those who realized this was the ending to Breakfast at Tiffany's and not my life. I am far from Audrey Hepburn,but this is not the point. The point is that moment was soooo romantic. My question today is: What was the most romantic moment of your life? And if, like me, you don't really have one share a movie you absolutely loved and go ahead and make yourself the star if you want.

Quick Question

Short post today. Half because I can't think of anything to write and half because I love hearing everyone's responses. I was just wondering who has crit groups and how they met them. I'm in desperate need of one.
SO, did you meet at an RWA meeting or on-line? Have you had a bad experience with a crit group? Or is it the best thing since sliced bread? Thanks!
