Good post! It really does help to sleep on a problem.
I can't say that I've ever slept on writing a book though.

well done actually i am likely to get my idea either in the shower
so that i have to hop out and write down the concept so i don't forget or else just as i am drifting off to sleep and that means that I have forgotten it by morning. Well done..yes tighten and make more believable...good ideas.

It worked for you!! Problems don't usually let me 'sleep on it' at all. I just stay awake stewing. Maybe I should try it again. Just have to figure out how.... Happy for you that it gave you ideas!
