Just do it. Really. No, seriously... stop waiting and DO. IT. Projekt Lucid began as a simple idea in my head 20 years ago. I was working at a mindless job that definitely wasn't art related, watching my youth disappear hour by hour just to be able to pay rent to survive. I was listening to a song by VNV Nation and zoning out, when an idea started forming. The smallest inkling of a plot, but an idea. I jotted down some notes, but it didn't go farther. Time passed. A couple years later I decided to share this idea while eating dinner with a friend... who happened to be a writer and had previously written for a major cartoon network. I thought this would be the perfect person to give feedback. After listening to my very brief synopsis he said, "How do you get people to care about consequences in a dream? Also... it's been done hundreds of times before." Hard to hear, but he was right. I decided to scrap the idea, and didn't do anything. Time passed. In the years afterwards
