My dreams have been diminishing lately—I’m still trying to figure out why—but that’s not going to stop me from collecting the tweets I’ve been sharing about them. Whenever I don’t, I get asked about it, which means some of you care, so … here you go!

Last month, I dreamt about Stan Lee, Don Draper, Frank Sinatra, Marie Severin, President Obama, and more.

I dreamt @BrianKeene showed up at a con with a long list of writers he demanded stop writing horror because they weren’t horrifying enough. Jun 21


I dreamt I was on a panel at a con, and at the far end of the table sat — Frank Sinatra. He was argumentative, contradicting EVERYTHING. Jun 16


I dreamt a woman kept wolves as pets. They broke free and tried to kill me. I had to kill one even though it was beautiful. And I was sad. Jun 16
