November 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

I dreamt I’d just critiqued someone’s story in a workshop, and the other writers, instead of critiquing that story — critiqued my critique! Nov 30<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I wandered Comic-Con’s exhibit hall in a suit, couldn’t figure out why, then realized I was supposed to be at my mother’s funeral. Nov 30<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was at a convention when an agent cornered me and asked me to send him my novel. Now THAT’S a dream! Nov 28<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was in a battle during medieval times … which I and my friends escaped by hopping into a Jeep. The anachronism then woke me. Nov 28<\/em><\/p>\n

I had a dream that involved Rik Mayall as the People’s Poet from the Young Ones<\/em> … but alas, now that I’m awake, I remember nothing more. Nov 27<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was part of a panel discussion on the Rolling Stones, during which Mick Jagger showed up to say everything I’d said was wrong. Nov 27<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was Reese from Person of Interest<\/em>, about to go undercover (but where?) by donning an outrageous mod Austin Powers-like outfit. Nov 24<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was exchanging emails with my (dead IRL) friend Bob Freedman about getting together for dinner, then woke and remembered. Damn. Nov 24<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was on the Canadian border in the Pacific Northwest, looking down with @ShearmanRobert<\/a> on a waterfall making Niagara seem puny. Nov 23<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt someone tried to hand me a two-foot-long turtle, but it was so spikey, I didn’t want to touch it. So he tossed it in my bathtub. Nov 23<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt Bill and Hilary stayed overnight with us, and as I wandered the house with them, I pointed out and explained my father’s paintings. Nov 21<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was being given a tour of a school, and was chastised by my guide for walking across a spot where a shooting had taken place. Nov 21<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt that while wandering a city at night, I turned onto a street scattered with glowing necklaces. I wanted to gather and return them. Nov 21<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I acted as chaperone at a Prom and stopped a kid from getting bullied. But then the bully accused me of being a time traveler! Nov 20<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was an old lady who discovered her young caretakers were planning to kill her, so hid a Bowie knife under my shirt. Nov 18<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was Will Smith, engaged in a crazy action sequence with three guys who were after me. We were fighting with only skis as weapons! Nov 17<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I went to buy sneakers with Marie Severin, and when I dropped her home, I had a baby in my arms, and none of us knew whose it was. Nov 17<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt a street magician pulled me out of a crowd to demonstrate his pickpocket routine, but I was too to ticklish for it, and woke up. Nov 16<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I lived in a small town, and was planning with others in secret to take down surveillance tech to prevent a coming dictatorship. Nov 16<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was about to dine at @NextRestaurant<\/a>, and as I sat at the empty table, trying to remember the menu I was there for woke me up. Nov 16<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was in an auditorium about to watch the Hugo Awards, surprised as thousands of us were handed plates of homemade Italian food. Nov 16<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I wandered a museum with @neilhimself<\/a>, discussing in depth paintings we passed, but remember none of them, so can’t ID the museum. Nov 15<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt @rickbowes<\/a> led us all on a walking tour, ending at MacDougal and Bleeker Streets, which he declared “the best corner in NYC.” Nov 16<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I had Lost<\/em>‘s John Locke pinned down with a rifle , but as he got closer, I was unable to shoot, so he was able to wrest it from me. Nov 12<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt my wife was trapped in Israel during a period of intense war, so what did I do? Go to Vegas to drown my sorrows. And I don’t drink! Nov 11<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I came downstairs into the kitchen and discovered a ball of dough on the counter. So I whipped up an apple pie, of course! Nov 11<\/em><\/p>\n

I love you all here at #wfc40<\/a>, but last night I dreamt I was home and when my wife returned from a trip I squealed her name with happiness. Nov 9<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was with a group that included @charliejane<\/a> and @Annaleen<\/a> trying to distill Spider-Man’s entire history into 50 words or less. Nov 6<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt that as I was strumming some George Formby, @Paul_Cornell<\/a> walked by, paused, listened momentarily, and then quickly continued on. Nov 5<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt Joe Quesada visited my Brooklyn apartment I occupied back in 1985, and I was telling him about my Marvel artwork. Which I’d sold. Nov 5<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was reading about Jim Shooter, then he appeared — like Beetlejuice! — and his memories of our past were not the same as mine. Nov 4<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt my wife was going to sing opera as part of her birthday celebration (you may have been there) and I was preparing to record her. Nov 4<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I was at a @BryanVoltaggio<\/a> restaurant — not sure which — and as part of dessert, I had to peel my own apples — but I ran out! Nov 4<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt that as I read a Veronica Mars<\/em> comic, Kristin Bell appeared. I thought I’d developed a new superpower! Woke before I could test it. Nov 3<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt my neighbor was Archie Bunker, who grew upset when my wife and I hugged in front of his kids, as if they shouldn’t see such things. Nov 2<\/em><\/p>\n

I dreamt I wandered my backyard and kept sinking, not in a quicksand kind of way, but as if all the land had been replaced with foam. Nov 2<\/em><\/p>\n
