Dream journals

If you don't do it, I incite you to keep a dream journal, in whatever form you desire.
It's both a useful tool to get to know your psyche better, and a powerful source of inspiration for your role-playing games.

I've been keeping one since 2007. With great irregularity, of course, since the necessities of life and the state of my sleep don't always allow for quality dream-recording, but still : I've been at it for 17 years and I have a good pile of resources now. Plus, I am me : there are some dreams so crazy I cannot not write down.
I have landscapes, dangers, situations and NPCs for all manners of settings : modern-day of course, but also gonzo kitchen sink, realistic post-apocalypse, crazy post-apocalypse, fantasy, horror, other science-fiction. And of course, some things can always be translated and converted between settings.

So, it's great ! Do it !
I really should post a write-up of a few things here one of these days.
