“What does the nightmare in A Nightmare on Elm Street mean?” asked Steve and Abbey, presenters of the PowerPack breakfast show where I interpret callers’ dreams. I’m a movie lover, but horror is not my genre, and it took a few arm twists before I agreed to download it so I could answer the question. […]
I saw the movie Samsara yesterday, and awoke this morning with a New Year alchemy idea for you to do. I’ve called it Samsara Alchemy, and as I type those words something deep within jumps to attention and formulates a concept for a book by that title, so I take a note to self. In […]

Listen as Alison and […]
Viv, my guest, dreamed of murdering her husband. She wanted a canteen of cutlery, and the only way to get it was to deliver a quick blow to the back of his head while he slept. It was a harrowing dream, the kind that many people keep to themselves, frightened to share for fear of […]
“Global tidal wave of 70,000 job cuts,” announced the online news. “The tsunami of layoffs started in Europe …” Instantly I got the picture. It’s a metaphor that works.
