Dreams – divine inspiration?

June 22, 2010 by Nicole 7 Comments

Are many of you inspired to write stories from ideas in dreams? My current project BirthRight The Arrival was inspired by day-dreams but that doesn’t really count. I mean the unconscious crazy type dreams!

Don’t you wonder where they come from sometimes? Divine inspiration? Memories of a past life? A view to the future?

Last night was really warm (for winter) and as a result I had a variety of nutty dreams but can only remember one clearly (ish). It was myself as an older woman. With plenty of wrinkles and a face I barely recognized (and still long colored hair *lol*). I was wearing a long tutu inspired skirt with a beautiful fitted top in ruby. The funny part is that it didn’t bother me at all! I felt an odd sense of joy at seeing myself reach such an age. Looks like I’ll have lotsa fun for a long time yet *grin*.

I was just wondering if any of you have written stories that were inspired by dreams? Were they dreams you could explain away (like the time I’d watched a documentary on elephants and that night dreamt I was teaching an elephant to play pick-up-sticks in my family’s holiday home..). Or were they totally out-of-the-ball park, inspiring creations?
