The lucid dreaming magazine project

**nqwDE** · 03-21-2013 01:06 AM

Hello all! Today I had an amazing idea - how about we write and publish a magazine about lucid dreaming and dreams in general? I have the computer skills to do MOST of it, but I need two things: Authors, and readers! I had the idea for the name, and I personally like "Astral". But i'm open to other ideas!

We'll have four columns: Inducing Lucidity, Dream Control, Beyond Dreaming and Q/a.

I would help if I had the time, and I wasn't running 3 of my own projects. This seems like a fun idea, hope you manage to get some authors. I can always feature as a guest if you're ever up for it

My reply got deleted, I think it's related to the problem that the server just experienced.

So tldr:

- Not to discourage you, but a project like this takes a lot of work
- You could always work together with the moderators in getting permission to use forum content as a background for reflection articles
- I'd be willing to write some articles about it (mostly on a scientific point of view), but I'd like to wait and see how many people show up and commit.
- I think Astral isn't a very good name, it relates too much to astral projection, which is some kind of mysticism that is not only non-proven, but also dismissed by loads of lucid dreamers. I think something in the lines of "Lucidity letters" or something like would sound nicer.

I'd love to help. Where can we get started?

Does everyone here have skype? I would like to get some people from other forums, too

I've had some stories and articles published, so I'd love to help out.

Do you have skype?

**Nerq** · 03-29-2013 12:53 AM

I have skype, but I was wondering if we could discuss some more organization through here before calls started going through. Starting out with; does anyone have any magazine publishing experience?

I have a few articles published in a few magazines as well as short stories published in the Lucid Dreaming Exchange. I also may have a presentation with IASD depending on time constraints.
