Nightmare.

Extended dream of being held hostage by some kind of very powerful consciousness, in another world... another kind of world. I had been removed from this one some how, trapped in an alternate dimension or some comparable mechanic. I was not alone, but lost most of the people I was there with. Dimly, I recall arriving with some companions, but I

I can't begin to say how much I've missed your writing.

This is just ... words fail me. Beautiful comes to mind, but it doesn't really encompass this correctly. Is this part of a larger project or just a random bit of writing?

! Unbelievable boost to my confidence. I've been feeling on shaky ground on the writing front lately, but this is a good reminder of that thing which I am best when I keep sight of: relax. Just write.

Thank you, my friend :) I think it's just what I needed today.

This is literally just... my dream last night. I woke up still sick with fear, and once I struggled out of bed decided I'd better write it down (if you click on that tag, you'll see there are a few of them, in varying levels of detail). That said, once I saw how much I'd actually remembered of it once I started writing, I was rolling the possibility around in my mouth of making some adjustments, cleaning this up, writing about it less as a dream and submitting it for the mini-contest with the Independence prompt.

PS HOW HAVE YOU BEEN. I worked all winter at the coffee shop, and taking your advice, got very good at pouring latte art. I have since moved on, and am once again on the job search. <3

I think that would be a grand idea! I have something written as well, but I MIGHT rewrite it as something else instead, maybe an experiment with prose or something. Something different for me, you know?

I've been good, thanks for asking! Busy with two weddings coming up (my friend and my sister) that I'm maid of honor-ing for. That plus the weight loss plan... it's been tough.

That's so cool! What kind of latte art did you end up making? My sister started doing some etching with hers, and the things she's churned out are AMAZING! Like, lace patterns in the foam, all free poured and etched. No stencils. And that's neat that you've moved on. What are you doing now?
