“You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, 'Why not?'”
- George Bernard Shaw
I know it's totally weird but sometimes I dream about other worlds - literally. If I'm lucky I manage to write the crazy stuff down before it all slips away with the rising sun, but not all the time.
I've ofter wondered about dreams. I guess they're a collection of our thoughts, memories, emotions, etc. Still, I've had dreams that seem to spring out of nowhere at all. Is that even possible? I have a freakishly active imagination and ever since I can remember, I've had at least a few worlds going on in my head. When I'm not writing, the only place for them to really emerge is through my dreams.
The problem with dreams is that they evoke such raw emotions that keeping a plot together is really difficult. Often people just remember being happy, afraid, angry, or whatever. They can't really tell you what caused the emotion.
Still, I've had some of my best ideas during sleep and I hope that it will continue :-)
