What a cool dream sequence, and a brilliant way to write his nap! I really got a sense of that wind in the beginning, what a great lead in, I was totally unprepared :)
Once again you've transported me to childhood, I remember a dream I once had that also involved miniature attackers...except they were based on a movie I saw called Willow, lol. Just like life, dreams seemed to have so much more action, energy and magic when I was a kid, and you captured the power of that.
Once again you have outdone yourself, and as always I look forward to the next hour in Ledd's life!

Thank you for continually providing me with a source of encouragement, my friend! Your feedback and thoughts have proven to be quite invaluable :)
I can't say I've watched Willow before, but it looks interesting. I didn't know that Warwick Davis starred in his own movie before! #til Dreams really do cover a wide range. I owe it to the power of our brains. One day you're dreaming about miniature attackers, the next you're dreaming about The Chlorella Project ;)
The internal debate regarding the inclusion of dreams in the story was a rather lengthy one, but logic won out. I'll be discussing it a bit in this week's SILVER LINING :)
PS I happened upon an advertisement earlier that's very reminiscent of Today Again. The movie is entitled Before I Fall. Thought you would want to know.
My dream are nuts. The other night I dreamt about a friend I've met on here's soul mate, haha! He asked if I often play cupid in my dreams LOL. No, but I did that night ;)
I will be looking for the silver lining :)
I looked up Before I Fall...at least it's involving the mystery of her death and only takes place over a week, not quite what I'm doing with mine. I can't say I'm surprised, people tend to be connected and things often become a trend. That happened to me with the vampire story, I had started working on the initial idea before Twilight, and then bam the market was flooded with vampires.
Oh, I just meant the day repeating aspect of it is very reminiscent of Today Again. I guess that's where the similarities end haha I just heard it on the radio, and it made me think of your story.
Bittersweet story with Twilight. I do agree with that sentiment though, and I must say that it has happened to me quite a lot. That is, for writing and for programming apps. There's always something that pops up which looks exactly the same when you're in the middle of creating something. That's why my current approach is to try and think of something very offbeat.
