People really write stories just for themselves?
I feel baffled-- writing is hard work, whereas picturing things in my head is easy, and can be done in endless variations.
Totally agree! It's hard to write something that will make your readers see the same pictures. You sound very visual, like me. I see my stories as a film - action and dialogue - and I have to translate that to words.
I write only in order to be read.
Me too. Otherwise I'd be content running my own private films in my head for entertainment.
