Dream Stories

Dream Stories — Recording Dreams your Story

If you’re like most people, you have had some pretty intense and vivid dreams. Perhaps you have even dreamed an entire story. I have. I sometimes joke that I’m a more effective novelist when I am unconscious.

The problem is that people quickly forget their dreams. To ensure you will be able to take advantage of and build on your dreams by turning them into stories, novels, and screenplays, make sure to record the dream as soon as you remember the dream.

I personally use a digital audio recorder. I had a few of these (lost them), and then I realized my Blackberry Curve has an audio recorder built right in.

I will be sharing my audio files as soon as I figure out how to upload the files. They’re pretty coherent scenes. The more often you can record your dreams, the more likely you will remember your dreams. I joke that I’m more productive while I sleep.
