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.

That's so cool about those flashes of clear visuals. It sounds like your mind stores up the pictures and then just erupts with them every now and then.
I can't believe that anyone would ever think self story telling wasn't healthy. It's a perfect way to entertain yourself and has to help your imagination.
And really, self told stories are meant for Mary Sues :)
