...<i>I’m not a psych major, but I have a PHD in naps.</i><br /><br />Love it. <br /><br />And yep, I'm kinda sick of seeing dreams in novels, especially when they have a full-on mini story ARC. Lol.

While they never tell me the future (that would be downright creepy), they are usually coherent and have a plot. ...and sometimes they continue from one night to the night, or they'll randomly restart (and then I will be all SCORE because I have a second chance to not screw things up). But, yeah, they're not typically helpful or applicable to my day life.

I totally forgot the actor's name. So weird.

They can sometimes work, especially in fantasy, but on the whole, I think we, as writers, need to work harder to make our dreams more dream-like. More David Caruso and karaoke machines thrown in with the prophecy.<br /><br />Also, I would like a PHD in Naps. Where do I apply?E. Kristin Andersonhttp://www.ekristinanderson.comnoreply@blogger.com
