I too have researched lucid dreaming techniques for a period of years. None of the techniques seemed to work for me (maybe because I gave up too easily when it came to keeping a decent dream journal; I could never discipline myself enough to get out of bed to write down the dream I had and then I would forget it). However, I'm always interested to hear newer techniques. Maybe I can somehow learn to get off my lazy rump and write my dreams down, lol.

I've also had lucid dreams on occasion without intention, but normally my lucidity didn't last but for a few seconds before the dream took over again.

It's good to read about other lucid dreamers though. I've visited Ld4all's website on quite a number of occasions for techniques, and your storeis fascinate me, Oneironaut. I truly feel inspired by them.
