Movie Skink
Movie Skink asked Andy Weir:

Hello, When I'm working on or learning something extremely dense and technical the ideas and information often begin to invade my dreams as well as my waking hours. While reading The Martian I couldn't help wondering if the life and death situation you had created had taken root in your subconscious in this way?

Andy Weir No, I never had dreams about the book or anything. I usually don't have very literal dreams. Just vague situations and disjoint emotions.
