I am a writer whose professional and personal paths have been deeply influenced by dreaming. As the co-author of The Practical Psychic (Samuel Weiser, 1991), I concluded that there are many means to enlisting our psychic resources, but dreams are the most immediate, regular and available. While writing Parting Company: Understanding the Loss of a Loved One--The Caregiver's Journey (Seal Press, 1999), I found instances in which dreams seemed to span the boundary between those who had died and the survivors who cared for them. For years, I wished someone would elaborate on how entertaining dream journals could be and finaly did it myself with a mystery novel, Dreaming the Dead (Blue Canary Press, 2008).
