Woke up from a dream which could be a good idea for an original novella and wrote it down (it didn't make sense while I did it, but let's see if I can get something out of it)

Which reminds me,

My stories almost always come from dreams.

November was inspired by a dream, at least K was inspired by a dream (a creepy figure in white with blood red eyes and a scar grinning uneasily at L, his constant nightmare)

Seven Stars was inspired by a dream, a Werewolf girl fighting alongside Bam against the Albion in the Fairy Forest

Lahrdar'et was inspired by a dream, originally a girl who was half-Elf half-Sylph adopted by dragons destined to bring peace (after more than ten years working on it, I subverted all the clichés of the first draft... Don't be too harsh, I was 14 and it was 2007 when I gor the idea for the first draft😅)

I think the Doctor Who fanfiction about the Doctor's daughter Jenny also came as a dream first.

The same goes with Il Lord di Ghiaccio (which was inspired by my boyfriend's dreams and mine), the Pokémon self insert and a novella about a modern magical world. Even the romance novel I wrote.

That is: the entirety of things I wrote stems from dreams, and apparently I can't get the faintest idea for a story if I don't dream it first.

Conclusion: I need to sleep more

I saw Nimona! It was delightful, especially Nimona herself- I loved the animation for her shapeshifting, and she was a total joy to watch. A menace and a woobie. A 10/10 meowmeow who can actually turn into a cat and meow. Tragic backstory has me clutching at my heart, no notes. They did a great job with Ambrosius and Ballister, though they're very different from their original counterpoints (especially Ambrosius, who is wrong but also basically a sweetheart. Ballister is also a sweetheart, but that rings pretty true to the original to me). I think the biggest emotional/relationship change is that the crux of the respectability politics metaphors has shifted from Ballister and Ambrosius to Ballister and Nimona, and I think that really works, especially in the context of the other changes they made. Nimona gets her own xagnetoesque quasi-romance, and on a shallow note I thought that was extremely tragicute and it really worked for me. My only critique is that bits of the movie felt a little rushed. I would have liked it if they had let a little more time pass in-universe and given a few of the big emotional scenes a little more breathing room, but it all came together and it gave me that good movie feeling where you sink into it and stop thinking about the story as a story because you're too busy experiencing it.
