Matthew Toffolo interviewed Sabine Meyer, a psychiatrist and writer, about her wrtings and WILDsound converting her short stories into films. Sabine explained how her interest in using dreams for writing inspiration began after listening to a lecture by Robert Butler about accessing the subconscious through dreams, which led her to start recording and developing her vivid dreams into stories. She discussed her collection "Dream Seeds," which consists of vignettes exploring mother-daughter relationships and symbolic bird imagery, as well as her political commentary story "King Harold and the Hairless" which was inspired by current political situations and draws parallels to "A Christmas Carol." Sabine shared that her writing career began during COVID-19 when she gained extra time from reduced commuting. She has three daughters who serve as her harshest critics while offering writing advice like "write as if nobody's ever going to read your stuff."
