Have you heard the news? The Science Fiction and Fantasy writers of America has decided to change its membership requirements.

That’s right—as announced yesterday by Patrick Nielsen Hayden, in order to gain or retain SFWA membership, you’ll have to appear in at least two of my dreams!

Don’t believe me? Then check out Patrick’s tweeted revelation below:

Which made me realize it was important for me to prepare a dream census to help guide SFWA’s officials in their new mandate. So below is a list of every person, real or fictional, who has appeared in the dreams I’ve reported to you since beginning to relate them on both LiveJournal and Twitter. You can find them all collected here.

So let’s see—who has visited those dreams more than twice? Who gets into SFWA? Following are all my nighttime visitors, with those who’ve appeared more than once bolded and having the number of visits after their names.
