Where and what is your dream job?
Dream job is in IT, which thankfully I already work in. Dream location though would be America, preferably somewhere that's full of great comic shops and shit like that. Although I say it's my dream location, but I wouldn't want to live that far from home. America is literally the other side of the world and I love England. Family and friends here that I don't know what I would do without, so it will always be a dream location and never a reality.

Are you able to remember your dreams?
Sometimes. Most of the time I wake up, think "well that was pretty fucked up" and then I can't recall much if any of it once I've woken up properly a few minutes later.

Do you ever have lucid dreams?
Yeah, and then I talk in my sleep and only realise that something is wrong when my partner answers with something that doesn't match up. My "wake" word seems to be when I ask "what?" in a confused state. I could be having a full on science fiction dream that to me is 100% real, weird shit going on and I have no idea that I'm in a dream. My girldfriend will answer me as I start talking out loud and everything seems to line up. Then when she says something that just doesn't add up to the rest of my dream and it's all over for me. I know that I'm dreaming and it's not long after that that I wake up because I then go from thinking that my life is great to realising that I'm dreaming and it's just not the same. Doesn't happen often mind you, like once or twice a year... othertimes I have no idea that I'm dreaming at all if I ever remember what I was dreaming about.

Where is your dream location to live?
Refer to dream job question. Comics are life. If I could live opposite something like DC Comics headquarters I'd be getting all kinds of restraining orders 😄

Where is your dream girlfriend/boyfriend like?
Live with her. She's beautiful, funny (and when she isn't funny, she thinks she is) and doesn't moan about the things that I love even though she doesn't share that love. Couldn't ask for more really. Unless someone like Kate Beckinsale came along. Dam she's stunning.

What was your favourite or most memorable dream?
I got to go to space. Great times.

What was your weirdest dream? scariest?
Most are weird. Scary though, I can remember one where my mother died and my whole family just completely ignored me like it was all my fault even though I had nothing to do with it, so lost my mother and the rest of my family. Can't remember much details, but that was a bad one and quite scary to be left feeling that alone.

Where and what is your dream job?
Being a successful writer. I've got the writer bit down (three self-published titles and counting) now I just need to work on the success.

Are you able to remember your dreams?
As far as I know, I remember most of my dreams. Usually pretty vividly for the first half hour or so then I start forgetting it when I try to recall later in the day.

Do you ever have lucid dreams?
I used to be quite the lucid dreamer. I used to be aware and be able to manipulate my dreams. These days, sometimes I'm aware I'm dreaming but it seems I don't have as much control over them.

Where is your dream location to live?
Right where I live. A nicer house, sure, but I don't want to leave my hometown.

Where is your dream girlfriend/boyfriend like?
Hmm... Curvy, reserved (not necessarily shy, just not putting every little detail about their life on social media), someone good with kids, and smart.

What was your favourite or most memorable dream?
Several times I've dreamed I'm one of the Power Rangers fighting those putty things. That's always good fun.

What was your weirdest dream? scariest?
I used to have this recurring nightmare when I was a kid where I would walk down the school yard of my old Junior School to come to an old shed (which isn't there in reality) and inside there would always be this man wearing one of those antique diving helmets. Used to scare the shit out of me... this is the helmet I mean:

Holy shit Rhys, that can see why that would be a bad dream. Creepy as hell that would be.

Where and what is your dream job?
Same as Ninjak - live my dream job in IT already. All I've ever wanted to do. Other than that, I'd love to work for 2000AD as I wouldn't to leave the country. 2000AD are the best UK comic company and would be so much fun - doesn't have to be in IT with them, just being in the comic industry would do me.

Are you able to remember your dreams?
Nope. Forget them moments after waking up.

Do you ever have lucid dreams?
Nope.

Where is your dream location to live?
Easier to list where I wouldn't. Don't like being too hot so sunny places are out. Like being by the coast as I've lived by the coast my whole life. Plymouth suits me really, I'm not a fan of change.

Where is your dream girlfriend/boyfriend like?
Kelly Brook.

What was your favourite or most memorable dream?
No idea.

What was your weirdest dream? scariest?
Funnily, I can't remember my dreams, but I can remember the bad times in them. I've always been a fast runner, like very fast. I used to have bad dreams where I was being chased and my feet just went incredibly heavy and I couldn't get faster than a jog. Was so stressful. Then there's the dream enders where I fall from a great high and wake up (and by wake up I mean immediately shot up into a sitting position feeling like I'm struggling to breath) just before I  hit the ground. Thankfully not had a dream like either in a very long time.
