Dreams as Inspiration in Your Writing

“I don’t remember my dreams too much. I hardly have ever gotten ideas from nighttime dreams. But I love daydreaming and dream logic and the way dreams go.” -David Lynch

I love dreams. Actually, my love for dreams is, if I remember correctly, what got me into Carl Jung in the first place. He grew on me. At first, I didn’t like him much at all. Now I admire the work of his that he shared with the world. The difference between Lynch and me is that I do use my nighttime dreams as inspiration at the least. I love weirdness. I love writing my dreams into something. I don’t remember most of them, but I have a dream tracker and I do my best to record what I can remember of my dreams.

Do you keep track of your dreams?

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
