In a dream I had last night, I was trying to explain Dick Francis novels to someone.
Note: I have never read a Dick Francis novel.
"OK," I said, "look, it's not a series, the protagonists are all different -- they're all mystery novels about horses but the horses play a different role in each book, like, the horses are always plot-relevant but they're not the same ... horses ..."
"That doesn't make any sense," he said, "how can you write twenty different mystery novels that aren't a series and are all about horses?"
So I tried to pull up
rachelmanija's Dick Francis tag to demonstrate, but something was wrong with the internet and it kept redirecting us places I didn't want to go, and the end result was that he never did believe me about Dick Francis and it was deeply frustrating.
This is the only dream of mine I've remembered in months. Apparently my subconscious is very keen to explain that it doesn't believe Dick Francis novels exist.
