He reckons it's just something that happens to creative, imaginative people and I think he's broadly right (because, yeah, I get them as well.) <br />Though it could be that they happen to everyone and writers or other artsy types are the ones who actually listen to them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02380460920590610813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281925592595958318.post-35764455767307741612015-04-25T01:36:16.432+01:002015-04-25T01:36:16.432+01:00"Maybe you run dialogue all the time in some ..."Maybe you run dialogue all the time in some part of your head, and when you get tired, it becomes more apparent!" This is what I suspect. I think most of the time it's screened out by my conscious brain, but the sound-baffles drop as I fall into sleep.

It certainly sounds like radio frequency noise. <br /><br />How ... weird. <br /><br />I've only had two remotely similar experiences - one when I was tired and drunk and I sort of fell into a waking dream while still talking to friends at a party - I carried on the dream-conversation out loud, and everyone looked at me in confusion. The two halves of my brain working at once was a weird experience. <br /><br />The other time was very brief and kind of personal. What would make the most sense was that it was a recently dead person, and it was in the of context the situation. Nothing similar has ever happened since. <br /><br />I wonder are these snatches of stories from the depths of your writer brain? Maybe you run dialogue all the time in some part of your head, and when you get tired, it becomes more apparent!Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988685736635515808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281925592595958318.post-21709399987273901542015-04-24T23:16:04.860+01:002015-04-24T23:16:04.860+01:00This sounds similar to what happens to me sometime...This sounds similar to what happens to me sometimes—under those very circs, i.e., on the threshold of falling asleep. It's a dream-type phenomenon, I assume.Jeremy Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980177431018869829noreply@blogger.com
