Hamlet Dream

[labingi]

I very rarely have truly interesting dreams these days, but I had one last night. It was a massive, expansive dream about an extroverted Hamlet in a surreal setting that varied from medieval to cyberpunk with a stopover in the 1970s (and a very modern Ophelia too). It was so fun and interesting, in fact, that I may work it up as a story--not right now but as a project for the future.

The neatest thing is that it's very different from any story I'd think up consciously. I managed to dream up a protagonist whom I suspect of being an ESFP, which is just really unusual for me:)

That's great. It's so rare that a literary dream comes together like that, with design and all -- I'd like to see that Hamlet pretty seriously.

Thanks:) I wrote up some notes on it last night. I think it would be fun as a departure from about everything else I write. In my head, it's sort of an anime...
