Happy summer everyone!

I hope you all have great plans, are visiting friends and family, are going on holidays. The summer can be so exciting. (apart from my sunburns)

Today I have sort of sad news. I'm gonna need a summer break for a few weeks, because I'm going away, different trips for the next month or so. Unfortunately, I can't always provide internet and I don't want someone to expect a post unnecessarily.

So, this means I will see you back sometime in August and I'm sure you're gonna have a lot to tell yourself then.

See you soon,

Nahno

Do you get ideas from your dreams?

And if so, are they whole stories or do you just include part of it in your writing?

I very much like my dreams, they can be more fantastic than any book I've ever read and this is why I try to keep a dream diary. My best ideas came up through my dreams.

Just yesterday, I had this amazing dream. Right before I felt the morning come closer into my conscious, I realized that I need to remember everything quick so I can note it down. Once you waited more than a few seconds with your eyes open, most of it will be gone. This dream was so vivid and quite interesting, that I decided to use it for my next book (as I was looking for ideas anyway).

Luckily, it fits perfectly to the idea I had and gives it even more momentum and also more concrete content. Have you experienced something like this?

This can really be a problem.

Expressing anger should be easy, most would say, because you can let everything out. Well, for me it's not.


I struggle to be angry with someone, just because I don't like the feeling, I despise swear words, insults and the like. Of course sometimes, when something really ugly and despicable happens, there is no way you can not be full of hatred and fury. Apparently, I can - staying calm in the least imaginable situation.

So now I want to know how you cope with anger. For my writing I can't just have characters who refuse to be angry. This is why I need real experiences about coping mechanisms. Do you scream, do you throw things? Maybe there is something that I can try for a change. Sometimes I wish I could be like the cheerleading coach in Glee. She is awful, but at least she let's it all out.

I heard writing letters and expressing all the anger there shall help. Maybe I try that, too.

I'm really curious about what you do, even though I don't wish anyone the need to be furious.
