The Dreamy Writer

I dream most nights in my sleep. I have no clue to their duration but they are long enough to result in nice short stories involving themes and characters I have not thought of before. My dream stories occur in parts i.e., before, during and after brief spells of my waking up during the night. The stories are in my mother tongue Tamil. Occasionally I dream delivering speeches in excellent English. I am scarcely able to recall my stories and speeches in full the next morning and I fail in my attempts to write them on paper. Only sketches remain in my memory for few days and fade away. My dream of becoming a writer thus remains only in my dreams.
