Writing out daydreams- feeling comforted?

[Grace]

I love the way it feels to write out daydreams. I love writing in general, but it just feels so great to write out my daydreams... I don't do it often, fearing someone will find them, or walk in on me writing. I don't like people reading my stories anyway, but my DD's? No way... so if I write them, I crumple it up and throw the papers away. But when I write them, it's my way of bringing them into reality in some way. When I read stories/books, I picture them in my mind and they feel so real to me. Imagining someone reading a book of mine, based on my daydreams, that's so perfect... It comforts me to write them out. Your mind is a place no one can see in, it's just yours. While that is a nice thought, does anyone else sort of like telling people about their daydreams? I've always wanted to, and, I kind of have in a way. To my friends. I've told them about it, but of course they don't think much of it, and I never tell them I have MD, but just what I DD about. It would be amazing learning other people's DD's, and telling them of mine. People who understand, and have MD, too.

Glad to hear that you've found a release, Grace! Many of us MDers are still searching for ours. =)
Just like you, I also write out my daydreams. I am writing a novel out of them by typing up little scenes of my daydreams that stood out the most to me, then I'm going to put them all together and make it flow. But, unlike you, I find that writing them down/typing them is really difficult for me; I can't describe anything like I wish I could. Like, I can't use descriptive words enough to make the reader imagine the scene as vividly as I see in my head, and I can't find a way to make the reader feel everything while reading that I feel emotionally, or physically even, while daydreaming. This frustrates me. -__-

I started writing my DDs down, mostly just the scenes that have been on repeat, and I usually end up typing them out on the computer (which is in my room, and, though not password protected, no one uses it. Except Mum at the moment for email and facebook and news. Just internet stuff, so no worries for me) And I put them on the computer partly so they're neater, plus I don't need to find storage for them plus I can copy them to a flash drive/ back them up so I have... well, back up and one day I can go back to them. I couldn't write out the back story, though once I tried, because it just got boring, all those scenes and been on repeat for a long time then finished. But I swear, everything I write ends up either with something negative in it, and so don't want people to read it, or have some part of my DDs that are really unrealistic and I'd hate for someone to know about them. I mean, I've mentioned a couple bits on this site, but that's it.

I guess in some ways it's be nice to share but... I don't know. Maybe one person, one day.

Sorry, long post.

I type up my daydreams on the computer and then save it. This way, I don't feel scared that someone will find them and ask me about them. I am not ready to share my DDs with other people yet.
