Hi BBS!
I think the easiest (well at least the simplest to describe[*]) approach to build a dreaming practice is just to resolve to pay attention to all your life experiences: waking, or dreaming, all of them. Do RCs, sure, but more importantly, be mindfully aware of what's going on with and around you. Try to gradually spend less and less time being "zoned out." Rather, strive to remain "tuned in." Then, practice recalling these experiences. At the end of the day, recall your day's experiences. When you wake up in the morning, recall your dreaming experiences. Reflect upon your experiences (both while you're in the middle of them and later when recalling them) and look for dream-like phenomena. Pay attention, reflect, recall, both day and night. Build a life upon those things and your waking life will be more enjoyable and your dreaming life will blossom. Do that, and the LDs will surely come.
[*] LD practice is not what I'd call "easy." It takes dedication, determination, diligence, and patience. It's a life-long journey of personal discovery of consciousness, awareness, sleeping and dreaming. Love the journey!
