- I had the nightmare again last night. Always the same. Having added to all existing stories, all I could do was create more. I needed to get to a FA meeting badly.
- To exercise my demons I started a story about a guy who dreamed he was swallowed by a hippo & discovered among the moist folds, an encounter group of former story writers. Recogniz
