Do you write about your dreams?


Question


Do you write about your dreams?
I usually write a small summary of my dreams and then go into much more detail about what happened in my dream.


Answer


Most of my stories involve elements of my dreams. One or two are completely based upon dreams. Usually Im terrible at fully imagining a certain scene or emotion in my mind, but dreams do that for me I experience every part of the story, and it makes it all the more compelling for me to write. brbrHello, fellow dreamwriter! brbrxxChae



Do you usually prefer books or movies?


Question


Do you usually prefer books or movies?


Answer


Books.brbrInvariably the experience of reading the novel is broader, richer, more detailed, etc. I feel like I know the characters in a book, because it has opportunity to make them wellrounded and real.brbrA movie has only a couple of hours and is limited to what the audience can see and hear. Its difficult to show the audience anything else without it seeming forced, like a character telling another character about his tragic past or his fantasies.brbrA novel has all the time it wants, and can share thought, emotion, experience, the past, hopes and dreams, fantasy, and more, in a way that seems consistent with characters who would not tell a living soul some of those secrets.
