Dream Entry*
January 23, 2004
I can only remember fragments of my dream:
Morzant knitting a Bunsen burner cozy.

My friends, a duck, and three whistling puppies skipping books across the lake.

* The dream entries from Briar’s journal contain premonitions of books that will be published in the future. Briar’s dream self foresees the books’ summaries and knows which will likely appeal to each of her friends. Briar always wakes up before she can see whether her friends will enjoy the books.

How am I just now discovering this wonderful blog?! I clicked on the author name pronunciation link in the sidebar, and wasted waaay too much time. I will return soon to thoroughly read these book recommendations.
Thanks so much for these lists of books. I want to read them ALL! :-)

Thanks for stopping by, Ruth! Funny thing. Briar actually wrote the name “Ruth” in the margins of her dream journal for this day. Now I know why.
Katrina, Morzant is working on a device that will freeze time so we’ll have time to read all the books we want. It’ll never work, of course. But, still, kind of a cool idea, don’t you think?
