This reminds me of the time I was reading a romance book and several pages in one of the love interests was described as having a big beard, which completely clashed with my mental picture. Yet the author CONTINUED to mention it. It was a fantasy book in another world so I imagined fake beards were all the rage and that he was wearing a fake beard as fashion but did NOT have an actual beard. So, not only was I imagining him different but I was creating my own lore to justify what was happening in my brain 😅
So, I've read/heard a few times that not everyone can see the scenes playing out in their heads while they read books and that it does not, in fact, seem like watching a movie being created reel by reel.
I personally cannot read books without forming at least a vague outline of what the characters and the world look like. Honestly, I think majority of readers have some form of imaginary theatre going on while they read a book which makes me think that what I read/heard is untrue. But what better place to gain enlightenment than this wonderful guild of tree preservers? :D

I am moontea. I enjoyed throwing knives as a child. My cat has extremely long toe fluff. I have an antique postcard collection. I love pumpkin pie and sweet potato pie. Onetime someone painted me and made me look extremely evil in the painting so I have it locked away in a closet.
