The Lucid Dreaming Book Project - Want in?

**Jeff777** · 06-28-2009 05:31 PM

As you all know, this lucid dreaming book was a project once put on the table, and for whatever reason, was then placed on the back burner in which it was allowed to accrue dust, and cobwebs. In essence...this forum is a dead weight on the board...an eyesore, a waste of main forum scrolling time.

When this project was in its prime, I was semi-on it and from what I can tell, a lot of work had been done...but a lot of work still needs to be finished.

Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Dr. Stephen Laberge, was a great book but it's also an old book. More research has been done since its publication and lucid dreaming hopefuls around this spherical rock need to know that.

Dreamviews has a track record that speaks volumes.

What's more notable than Dreamviews's track record itself are the people that have helped build Dreamviews to what it is today, you know who you are...and your work won't go unaccounted for. Our mission is to see to that.

If we produce a hardcover version of this book, the generated funds could be used to boost marketing for Dreamviews or go into a Dreamviews reserve account. It would be less of a hassle if we produced an e-book pay-per-download version, but also less rewarding. You can't exactly put an e-book on your shelf.

There's more work to be done...a lot more work to be done. Don't waste our time or yours if you're not committed to helping out. This project may take us a few months or maybe a year to finish. And if we decide to release an annual publication (in volumes), which has been suggested...then the time expected of team members to devote to this project will be even greater. That's yet to be determined though.

If you decide you want to be a part of this Dreamviews history and have the time to devote to the continuation of this project then we gladly welcome you to the team. Currently, we are looking for skilled writers, editors, people very knowledgeable about lucid dreaming, information organizers, graphic designers, and people who remain current on lucid dreaming topics, subjects and studies.

Now...

Please copy and answer the below questions if you are interested in becoming part of the staff on this project:

1. Are you interested in working full time or part time on this project? (Full time would be like 1 hr. a day, part time would be anything less than that)

2. Are you a good editor? (Please link some of your work if possible)

3. Are you a good writer? (Please link some of your work if possible)

4. Is organization one of your strong suits? (In terms of content, chapters etc.)

5. List any prior experience you may have had regarding working on a book

6. Is lucid dreaming a strong suit of yours?

7. Are you good at brainstorming? Or do you tend to just set off fire alarms...

8. Do you remain current on lucid dreaming studies and new information regarding the subject in general? (If so, please give a brief explanation)

9. Is graphic designing a strong suit of yours? (please list examples if applicable)

10. What do you feel you could bring to the table on this project? How do you feel you'll be of most help?

11. Additional comments you'd like to add

I'm sorry, but wouldn't a 'Dreamviews' book be owned by Asher, and thus any funds go into his account rather than a 'Dreamviews reserve account?'

Yeah, and Im fine with that. The goal is to just to get it out there. I would hope asher uses the proceeds to benefit DV. But that's entirely up to him.

Well I would have guessed since he is only here to make money, he wont be re-investing it back into the site for the good of lucid dreaming...

Let's not go there guys. The focus of this thread is to rally people for the staff, not about whose getting paid here

It's a volunteer based project.

**Black_Eagle** · 06-29-2009 10:41 PM

Why don't we just create a separate free forum that's locked away from the general public for this stuff and donate the proceeds to charity if we actually do start selling it...or something like that. I honestly don't think it's a good idea to trust Asher to make the decision of reinvesting into a website that doesn't really need money put into it.

Bump.

Guys and girls, girls and guys gather around for a big surprise, a lucid dreaming book is what we're making and for you to be a part of DV history is yours for the taking! Just go here and apply for staff and pretty soon LD'ers will want your autograph! http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=79992
