In other words, whenever we are appreciative, we are filled with a sense of well-being and swept up by the feeling of joy.

I had an idea for a medical conspiracy thriller. Since it was non-horror, I didn't want the publishers and editors bringing a lot of baggage - my history as a genre writer in the SF and horror fields, for instance - to the novel when they read it.
