Default I want to have dreams like her!

"Meyer says that the idea for Twilight came to her in a dream on June 2, 2003. The dream was about a human girl, and a vampire who was in love with her but thirsted for her blood. Based on this dream, Meyer wrote the transcript of what is now Chapter 13 of the book. Despite having very little writing experience, in a matter of three months she had transformed that vivid dream into a completed novel. After writing and editing the novel, she signed a three-book deal with Little, Brown and Company for $750,000. The book was released in 2005."

The woman has now sold over 42 Million copies of the book worldwide, the book was made into a movie and in the process has made a fortune and created the careers of the actors who play 'Bella' (Kristen Stewart) and 'Edward (Robert Pattinson)'.

Amazing Story!

I wish I had dreams that I could make a fortune off of. Unfortunately, my dreams are either frightening nightmares, or they are just a bit of fluff. lol

My dreams are a bunch of crap; I've never had a story that came to me in a dream. I did have a design for a mini-catapult, but that was while I was lying in bed before falling asleep.


... and the catapult was a project for my Latin class, I'm not THAT crazy. o.0

I can't even remember my dreams 99.9% of the time, so even if I did have a brilliant idea in my dreams, I'd probably forget 10 seconds after I wake up.

My dreams are really weird and sometimes a little nightmarish, too. The last one I had I walked through a tunnel from my house near Baltimore, MD and ended up in NYC for the first time (I've never been there) but was really PISSED cuz I was wearing rubber boots...?

I guess I didn't want my first time in the big apple to be of me looking ridiculous.

Oh, and I was eating easter candy.

I dare you to make a best-seller out of that one!!

Heh, looking silly is practically a law in NYC. There are so many weird people there, and everybody's used to it. The first time I was there I saw a guy with a wetsuit and surfboard. In the middle of the city. No shoes, no clothes other than a wetsuit, just him and his board. I lol'd.

I had a dream recently where my dad, my brother and I visited a weird office under a freeway overpass. It's the second time I've seen this place in my dream, but in the first time, it was a used-car dealership. This time, my friend's step-dad and some other girl were working there, doing something on computers. I assumed that the car dealership had gone out of business since the economic slump and was replaced by them, because the first time I had the dream was before everybody was like "omg recession" It was weird hehe.

I hardly every remember my dreams... But when I do they usually are more like what you would see in Alice in Wonderland.... one second i'm in one place then i step through a door and i'm in a completely different sourounding... it' weird... Like one time i was walking down the street and i went in this house and i started chocking and i realized that someone was pumping gas into the house to choke me to death then i went down a set of stairs and when i got to the bottom all of a sudden i was swiming in the ocean... and i turned and looked back and the whole house was under water...
