I used to have a recurring dream - a wall of fire in the basement of my childhood home, and my father going back to save our cats. It sticks with me even to this day...there's got to be a way to work that into a story!

I think dreams are a great way to get ideas. I've heard that dreams are a bit like our brains looking at what happened during the day and shelving it all away in our long-term memories. I can wake up sometimes and figure out, okay, that weird sequence came from this actual event that happened, but where X came from, I'm lost for words!
When writing, I think it is good to use dreams or even just parts of them. You might see connections in a way that you hadn't before or even find inspiration. I usually just discuss my dreams with my boyfriend and we laugh about the weird things we both dream about.

My favorite novels are weird mystery/thriller/supernatural type ones and I feel like those are the kinds that come from dreams.
Maybe one day I'll get motivated to sit down and make something out of it!!
