So I dont know if I have ever mentioned that I dont remember my dreams. The only ones I remember are ones that wake me up in the middle of them, which are usually nightmares. If I sleep the whole night threw I dont remember them. Is this my subconscious telling me I should write horror stories? I dont know, because most of mine are dealing more with just straight dying then actually being scary. Does this mean anything as well? I am constantly dreaming of dying or near death situations, not in extremely scary settings. Like last night, I was chased down by a woman with a gun and shot. I will spare the extra details, but we will just say, she had a story, a lie about me doing something that I didnt and when I didnt go along with her story, and implied that she was at fault, she became extremely upset with me and shot me.
Its the shock of dying or almost dying that breaks me out of sleep. Thus allowing me to remember the dream I was currently in. I am sure I have better, more fun dreams that would be more like what I would like to write about but I can not remember them.
I feel like continuing writing the book that I started this blog for, it gets hard when I am constantly being interrupted. I wrote mainly at work, when I was in the Air Force, the down time of just sitting and waiting and listening for stuff we reported was a lifetime, so I was constantly writing, having a computer, one that was mine for all shift helped too. Now I dont get a computer and we are constantly interrupted here. I could write at home, but that requires me to have some self restraint which I am sorely in need of. I do know that I enjoy books, fantasy ones, that explain in sufficient manner how the magic that they use works. I dont like books, or like books less, that just say, he waggled his fingers and shot out a fireball. It just is poor craftsmanship, I want to know how he does that, where he draws his power from, maybe I am a nerd, but I like to be entertained and believe that on some distant world there are people who can pull power from the flow of magic from the air and channel it through themselves, or learn the true name of something and command it to do as their bidding, not just yell out fireball and it magically, yes I know, appear. That seems enough for now.
Time for another post.
