Oneiros

I've been writing about dreams. Working on a story about them, or one, or something. It's certainly an interesting topic for fiction. A difficult one, as well. Dreams follow their own logic, which is why they call it "dream logic." You have to adjust your narrative sights.

  1. Good title.

    I seem to recall Lewis Carroll did pretty well with dream
    stories and so did H.P. Lovecraft for that matter.

    I can see how it could be an interesting exploration.

  2. Thank you. I don't speak Greek, but nice bits of it have floated into English.

    Carroll and Lovecraft were polar opposites in religious belief (one had them, the other didn't) but I believe they both had fairly prim personal habits. So you don't have to go chasing opium dreams to address the subject.

    Anyway, yeah, it is interesting.
