Ghost Dream

I've had dreams about ghosts before, usually represented by dark masses that hover on the edge of being seen, but in each of those dreams I "know" without a doubt that they're there. Last night's dream involved a stretch of hall that was designated as "haunted" by a pair of female ghosts who would chase …

Space Colony Dream

Space is more my Dad's thing than mine, so that may be why I don't often dream about it. When I do, it's usually a single, small building that's been set adrift while I'm inside. Such was the case last night, with the largest "ship" in recent memory. Once, I had a dream about having …

The Blank Page

Today's one of those days where I'm staring at one, so I'm going to write about it. "Getting started is the hardest part", they say—except the thing I'm currently staring at is a re-write. I've technically "started" once before, but I could also say I'm starting it over again. If I were to pull up …
