turpsI'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 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 :)
