Lemuria,
The important phrase is "after you wake up." One of the keys to writing as soon as possible is that the writing process itself often stimulates memories of the dreams, so you can have greater access to the experience.
If you keep a dream journal (or just a pad of paper) right at your bedside, you can do your writing when you're still in the dream-like state. It's quite amazing how much of a dream is forgotten, so your writing captures it.
Happy dreams,
Jeanie Marshall
