  • DEADLINE:   25 May 2012
  • ISSUE DATE:   1 June 2012

Details:  This non-fiction issue is to only feature dreams that authors have experienced themselves when asleep.

Here's an example:

Salvador Dali and I are running a deli. I leave him in charge of the counter and walk down the block and when I return there's a big 'For Sail' sign on the front door, but the outside of the place is no longer a building but a ship. On the roof is a plank and a man who looks a lot like me is walking the plank. He has a blindfold and smokes a cigarette. Then he takes out the cigarette and Dali, now dressed like a waiter, hands the plank guy a sandwich. The plank guy takes the sandwich and takes a bite. And I taste the sandwich! It's pastrami on rye with mustard. It's fantastic. I close my eyes and then when I open them *I'm* the guy on the plank, and the plank guy is now where I was, on the street and he RUNS outa there. Dali is gone and I look up: there's a crow in the crows nest. The crow winks and says, in a voice like Frank Sinatra: "Wake up, pally, you got to run for mayor, remember..."
