Some fun excerpts playing around with some plot generation:

Little bit of a teaser: I have narcolepsy type 1 (which means I have an additional problem of "cataplexy"). Long story short, I "suffer" from many many hypnagogic hallucinations, sleep paralysis and waking dreams. These excerpts have been slightly tweaked and I've fine-tuned models on my dream journals that I began to take down my memories of the experiences. So if it seems to be quite focused on dreams, this is why. Although the text is 100% unique from my original fine-tune dataset.

-- Fun fact, Philip K. Dick, if you read his Exegesis, is constantly referencing experiences of hypnagogic hallucinations and how they make it into the stories he writes...

His investigations lead him to find a girl, Lucy, who has a mysterious past and who is trapped in a fantasy world of her own creation called "Dreamland". Peirce is approached by a young man, who offers him the chance to become the host of a show, "Dreamland", as the show's star host, but only if he can solve the mystery of the girl, Lucy, and the mysterious past of her. Peirce realizes that the man who has been guiding him is the "Dreamland" he has been trapped in and, as a result, he becomes the main protagonist of the show. The first episode of the show is broadcast on television in the United States, and the first . . .

. . . starts with a boy named Tom (Chris Evans), who is a teenage delinquent in a juvenile psychiatric hospital named Killeen. He is being treated by a doctor, Dr. Gustavo (Eddie Marson). The boy lives in the hospital for a year and discovers that he is the only survivor of an event called "The Dream”.

tried to do some plot twists but my models aren't the best for this (not too surprising of twist)

Peirce is sent to a psychiatric hospital where his sanity is restored, but the story is interrupted when a mysterious figure suddenly appears in the room and attempts to attack him. Peirce is kidnapped by the figure and transported to a mysterious and sinister space station. The figure, a disembodied voice, announces that he is "the new man of the city”. The figure asks for Peirce's attention and a promise of his own power to help Peirce survive, and a strange thing happens: the figure reveals himself to be someone else, a person on a different planet.

Peirce is eventually arrested, and the detective discovers that the events of the city are actually part of a conspiracy, orchestrated by a single and mysterious figure: the mysterious figure, who has a large influence on the city's development. The detective is given a key to the secret of the conspiracy, but on his way to the police station to make a final confession, he receives a mysterious call, which causes him to become a target for the conspirators. The detective must find out who he is, and who is in the conspiracy, by using his skills on the streets of New York City as a detective and on the city's most dangerous streets as a police officer.

A young man from the suburbs, Charles Peirce has a life that seems normal. He's a successful private investigator, has a wife, and has a job. But he is plagued by the strange dreams, visions, and visions of death. As his work becomes more and more dangerous, he begins to notice that his sleep is becoming increasingly erratic. At the same time, his wife, Mary, is also becoming increasingly troubled by his behavior. Leaving the symptoms untreated, this sends Peirce on various surreal and unaccountable journey's around his rust-belt city, only to leave him with highly emotional and effective traces. Peirce's story is a great example of how to use the surreal to tell a compelling story. The story is set in a small town in the Midwest
