Now, I've started my own dream journal and have written down a couple dreams, but reading through this site and some others, I see things like "To actively lucid dream, you should be able to recall 2-3 dreams per night." From what I've understood, I should be setting my alarm clock to wake me up all through the REM cycle so I can record my dreams, but I ask, is there another way to remember multiple dreams without disrupting my sleep?
Feel free to call me wrong, criticise me, give me tips, whatever; I'm open to it all!
Sweet dreams!

Well, first let me welcome you to DV, and congratulations on Laberge's book and having a couple of lucid dreams already!
To answer your question: When you first start lucid dreaming, it's rather necessary to keep waking yourself up during the night to improve recall. It ensures that at some point during the night you are going to wake up in the middle of a REM cycle.
Once you've trained your brain to recall you might find you wake up automatically when you've had a dream, and you'll be able to write it down without the aid of an alarm clock.
I personally find alarm clocks very intrusive, so i tend to just drink a lot of liquid before bed, and then i need to wake up to go to the bathroom, and i can usually remember a dream that way.
Hope this helps, feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
