Who knows? :) Maybe I really did :) I also often dream about ideas for books/short stories etc. I decided to write a book that will be based on my dream about the ghosts of children killed by their grandparents. I also once had a dream which became the base for my Peter Pan fanfic you can find here: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7608134/1/ ... Lost-Girls

For example The Terminator movie (and the rest of the movies that followed the first one) - it started from a dream about a metal skeleton emerging from flames. The same goes for The Twilight vampire stories.

I never heard about the Reanimator story's origin but what I do know is that Mary Shelley did dream about Frankenstein and his creature and that's how it started.

This night I had a dream, in which some kind elderly gentleman was giving me spiritual hints and pieces of advice on how to improve the quality of my life.

Unfortunately not. It is like this: in your dreams you know well what others told you, but when you wake up, you forget what the people you have been dreaming about, told you in your dream.

hopefully in the fullness of time you find those bits of wisdom on your own then, but perhaps some of it is imprinted in your subconscious, finding expression when the right time and situation comes along.

I always wake up two times during one night - ALWAYS :? - and during this time I should record my dreams I had before I woke up - I already have a diary I won in a contest. So far yet, it is empty. I will need to fill it with descriptions of my dreams - some of them are really vivid :)

the important thing is to do your best to replay the dream from start to finish several times, this forces it into long-term memory, so you can better recall it. in the process of doing this, stress finding a narrative of all the dream images you see, in a logical flow, or at least as much of a logical flow as your dream allows for. :idea:

In most of my dreams, I am a flying reptile. Flying required concentration and gave my arms false fatigue.
In some dreams I'll be hunted down. If not, then the flight is enjoyable.
I woke up two hours late this morning to enjoy the dream of flying.
