Craft: Exploring Creativity

The loss of the creator of great movies and books.

So I read a new book, The Troop by Nick Cutter, the other night before I went to bed. It’s a horror novel with lots of gross-out scenes of people being eaten alive by worms, etc. It’s a fast, fun read (if horror fiction is your thing), although aimed at an adult audiences. (At least I hope it’s for adults, given the swearing, etc. But maybe I’m just old.)

Anyway, I had some nightmarish dreams that night, not necessarily, I thought, as a result of the book. But it made me wonder: if you read before bedtime, do you find that the subject matter influences your dreams? If so, leave a comment below.
