There
are various ways of contacting the Crossroads both me (Russell)
the webmaster here and the others who use the Crossroads website
and Crossroads site in "dream time". Email is
the usual use
the drop
down email in the box on the box on the left.

The guest
book in "dream time" can be found on the main
reception counter, please sign it if you visit the Crossroads. The
guest book in "waking time" can be found HERE.
Its a place to leave messages for other dreamers you might have
met at the Crossroads or in lucid dreams etc or for those who don't
wish to use the forums and email. Its great to see the feedback
in the guest book but if you want me to respond use the email.
Many people
choose to discuss issues such as lucid dreaming on internet forums.
A list of forums that you can discuss the Lucid Crossroads can be
seen half way down this page.

In
"dream time" the receptionists Glad and Clem will happily
take messages you may want to leave for other travelers. At least
one of them is "sometimes" on duty but they do seem to
go walkabout when ever they want. The paper on the lounge tables
can also be used to leave a trace that you reached the Crossroads
when lucid.

Internet
forums - For those not very familiar with the internet forums
are places where topics are discussed by posting messages that can
be read by members and most of the time other net users. I think
they are very important in mutual dreaming as they foster a sense
of community and can be used to keep up with shared dreaming events
etc.
NEVER
give out your full real name on these forums or ANY of your contact
details, you might also feel more secure using a hotmail email to
register or any email that does NOT contain your full name. I'd
say that dreaming forums are generally safe but you should always
take care and that strictly applies if your of a young age.
|
Different
forums are focused on different themes and have different feel
about them due to its membership. As I'm sure most net users will
know the internet has a young user base, this can be off putting
sometimes for older users who don't find discussions with a mass
of teenagers very rewarding. Although there are alot of young
lucid dreamers I personally don't see this as a bad thing at all,
just think of the experience they will have and they can pass
on by the time they are in their 30's!

About
me - Sorry
if this is not the usual websites full bio on the webmaster but
I'm not really into all that. I really just wanted to say that I
created this site for a few different reasons, the most important
to readers of this site is to make LDing more popular and try and
find out if shared dreaming can be cultivated via the Crossroads
dreamspace. I've a tad more and a posing photo on the page below.

Also I don't claim to
be a world expert on lucid dreaming, I've never written a book on
it and I do not have a degree in clinical sleep research, I'm an
artist and that at least qualifys me to make my own observations
on experience. All you read on this website is based on my own experiences
of lucid dreams, as well as those of other lucid dreamers I've communicated
with on email or via forums etc. I do get about 3-4 lucid dreams
a month, which would be more but I'm usually so busy I don't have
much time to put theory into practice. When I finish this site I
promise to make it my main mission to get to the Crossroads more
often in dreamtime and hopefully meet others there. For info on
where this site is going in the future click below.
