Slumberland
By Derra Nicole Sabo
Genre: Biography
How do you dream? Are your dreams in color
or black n' white? Do they feel surreal or all too real?
Well, I'd like to introduce you to my little
slice of bittersweet. These subconscious woods hold every fear and my anxieties
masked are as wolves. Nightmares that play on a loop for weeks, even months at
a time. Symptoms of waking in cold sweats and shaking. The only moments of
peace are found in the sporadically studded dreams that happen every now and
again. These woods house every past demon as well as certain past versions of
who I once was. This place is worse than death, yet it inspires. So...
...Before my alarm clock goes off, before I
take the last train out of here, I take one last glance back, one last glance
at all of the Polaroids pinned to every tree branch, polaroids of every dream
and nightmare that have stolen my nights since '95...
These dreams...these woods...this
place...it's my upside down...
This is my Slumberland…
Reviews:
"I enjoyed ‘Slumberland.’ It is a poetic,
dark, abstract look into Derra Nicole Sabo’s dreams. I was reminded of many odd
and repetitious dreams.
I really liked Sabo detailing how the unfamiliar and the familiar can offer both comfort and terror to the dreamer. I’ve always known the fact, but had never thought about it in those terms before..."

"I enjoyed weaving through every retelling
of the author's remembrance of her dreams and nightmares. How she explains
their importance through reflection of them is an eye-opener too..."
"there was something about Slumberland that
resonated with me. It is, in essence, a collection of short dream stories that
are weaved together in an inexplicable way. The author goes kind of dark, but
her phrasing is beautiful. It is abstract and poetic...”

When I'm not busy typing away, I love spending time with my family and friends.
Days spent at the beach ended by burgers at In-N-Out. Growing up I wanted to
become a fashion designer/ drummer, but somewhere along the way writing grabbed
ahold of me and I've never looked back. Over the years writing has aided in
healing from my past. Being born and living with a rare disorder led to being
bullied throughout life as well as surgeries growing up. Writing and music are
my sanity.
