Rumor has it the stork brought us. Just kidding.

Dreamsbay started out way back in 1994 as a small publishing group called Oedipus Press. Our mission back then was to publish a literary magazine that was actually fun to read – and, for the most part, we succeeded. The premiere issue of Inkblots was released in December 1994. Our friends loved us. Our families loved us. Heck, even some people we didn't know loved us. As far as we were concerned, we were a hit – an idea that was quickly confirmed by people offering us money. Our founder began working for companies writing and designing newsletters, and our editorial staff went to work for newspapers and other publications. Basically, we were happily discovering the strange and unusual world of getting paid to develop our hobbies. This gobbled up a great deal of our time, but we managed to keep getting together every so often to actually put out a magazine.

In the ten years that followed, both the magazine and our skills continued to grow. By 1996, we were shipping copies all over the United States and even overseas – but as our print edition gained popularity, a strange and unusual beast was rising on the horizon: the Internet. We placed the magazine on hiatus in 1997 to pursue this weird "web" thing, but it wasn't long before we realized that not only was the Internet perfect for Inkblots (no more printing costs!), but people would pay us for this kind of thing too. In 1998, Inkblots returned as a webzine, and in addition to creating newsletters and print projects, we began creating websites, CD-ROMs and animations. We weren't just a press anymore, so we renamed the company Dreamsbay Media Labs.

Several years passed. We continued to build up our skills and portfolios, and Inkblots continued to grow. Through Inkblots and our experiences with day jobs and schools and playing on the web, we were meeting tons of fascinating and incredibly talented people. And, in our spare time, we continued to produce projects for people. Finally, in 2002, Inkblots' editor-in-chief and the founder of this whole mess decided that the project had reached critical mass. In other words, producing Inkblots and all these side projects had somehow become a full-time job. So, gathering his wits, his portfolio and his contacts about him, he took the plunge. Dreamsbay Media Labs became The Dreamsbay Company, and a new business was born.

The Dreamsbay Company is a sole proprietorship owned and operated by founder/editor Geoffrey Long. As different projects require different talents, the company calls on the aforementioned network of creative professionals, including designers, programmers, photographers, writers, illustrators and animators. Between our core portfolio of skills and those of our network members, Dreamsbay can both provide creative consulting services for projects of all sizes. By leveraging the benefits of the Internet and our Rolodex, Dreamsbay can deliver results quickly and at very affordable prices to clients all over the world.

As of this writing, our client list ranges from tech startups in Washington, D.C. to arts groups in New York, from voiceover professionals in Chicago to health care companies doing business all over the world. Our portfolio includes projects from banner ads to massive online encyclopedias. And, oh yes, we still create a pretty impressive magazine to boot.

In just over ten years, we've helped hundreds of people make their dreams real. How can we help you?
