I've been having an interesting discussion over email lately, which led to a question I wanted to ask other people.

At night, or when I'm in the car or even just sitting when it's quiet, I tend to tell myself stories in my head. Nothing I'd ever write down, just things/people I like and think about. I do that with words and occasional images. So it's like a book with illustrations as opposed to say, watching a movie.

My question is. When you think, do you do so in words, pictures or some other way? Or maybe you don't do the story thing at all and think I'm a big old weirdo. In which case, feel free to smile and back away.

I think in English too!!! I've been doing it for years though it's been even more pronounced since I started my journal. So yeah, I definitely think it's got to do with reading so much in English but also, and perhaps even more, with WRITING in English all the time. You get more immersed in the languag when you use it actively I think.
