Ok, I have come accross something which I think could help others, and wondered if some of you here could try this too. Ok here is the story, I have a friend, who has just got a new tattoo. So I said to her not to tell me what it is, I will summon her in my dream and ask her to show me there, and see if I can get close to what it might be.

Now I know this is slightly flawed, due to most girls having the same tattoo on their lower back, typically here in the UK anyway. But I thought it would be something fun to aim for in a LD. So last night I was dreaming that some woman took me to her house, then I was in her kitchen and saw my dad in the house opposite, which I thought was weird. Then my dad was in the kitchen, at this point I relised this was a dream since he would never have been there. So I thought to myself right, first thing I need to do is to get my friend here, so I told my dad to open the door and let her in; since this is the easiest way for me to summon people when lucid. So he opened the door and in she came, I immidiately told her to show me the tattoo on her back, as i studied it, i thought to myself I must draw this so I have it for the morning, and as I drew it the dream became more and more real, I mean I could remember every little detail, so I drew the tattoo, but then, It seemed so real I lost lucidity, but the dream was so vivid I remember everything, the room, the smell, and even what we were saying. The dream went on for a while longer, but nothing more significant.

Anyway, I have a feeling that drawing had led my dream to become more vivid. usually people say rubbing hands and spinning, of which neither has worked for me... So wondered for any of the lucid regulars here if they would mind trying to draw tonight/tomorrow or when ever you can to tell me what effect this has on your dreams please
