Editors' Notes
Richard Wilkerson rcwilk@dreamgate.com


This is a kind of transition edition. Last month we really had our scary Halloween Cover by Bryan Smith and a call for scary dreams and articles. This month we actually have those articles and dreams.

Trick or Treat?

What, you didn't get a cover for your Electric Dreams? We have three ways to get them. The first is by signing up on a special list and getting Electric Dreams via a zipped file. You just download the email, unzip the parts into the same directory and use your favorite browser offline to view the illustrated issue. To hard? You can always view the latest illustrated Electric Dreams at http://wkweb4.cableinet.co.uk/dma/ed/start.htm  

To get the whole issue sent via email, send an email to: edreams-web-request@lists.best.com   Put in body of email only: subscribe your-email

And you can always get covers for back issues at http://www.dreamgate.com/dream/ed-covers/   which is a treat to visit in itself. Quite a dream inspired art gallery.

leonard.jpg (8993 bytes)A special treat this month for those of you wondering what to do with your nightmares. "Nightmare-awake!...oh" is a must read article for those who think nightmares are something to get rid of. Nora Leonard will lead you through the personal shadows of scary dreams to the transpersonal energies grounded in mythic vision.

I requested from Harry Bosma permission to reprint a very useful reply to a dreamer suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. This may not be a nightmare topic, but it can be very scary and Harry knows a lot about the topic.

Nancy Huseby Bloom also has a dream - answer column on nightmares this month. Be sure to read Watch your Dreams.

Linda Magallon offers a different view to the scary spaces of dreams. Perhaps there are scary dreamwork approaches as well dreamworkers and dreams. Read her Dream Trek column to explore the possibilities of Dreaming in a Safe Universe.

nintro.jpg (21959 bytes)If that is not enough for you, I have compiled a list of resources on nightmares that will keep you reading until next Halloween in my Introduction to Nightmares.

Also this month, a poem on strange dreams by William Burns and an interview with Kris B. Kendrick, creator of  the dreams project.

Peggy Coats has a wide variety of dream news and activities for you. We'd like to especially call your attention to the Association for the Study of Dreams updates, as some of the special offers are time sensitive.

Bob Krumhansl will be telling you all about the dreams this month, and you can see them in the DREAMS section.

If you would like to contribute dreams or comments on dreams to the next issue there are several ways sign up on the ed-core@lists.best.com   mail list drop off dreams on the web form at http://www.dreamgate.com/dream/temple   send the dream with title and pen name to me at rcwilk@dreamgate.com 

All dream sharing is considered anonymous unless you specifically request a name or address.

And of course, our DreamWheel Dream Groups via email continue as always. If you would like to join an email dream group, drop me a line at rcwilk@dreamgate.com  

OK, next month we would like to see Winter and Storm dreams. Got any? And how do you handle your stormy interpretations?

Keep dreaming and blowing up a storm,

-Richard
