I always thought there was three types of readers: the ones who read and they see it completely as a movie, the type who hears the narrator or MC speaking in their head, or some mixture of the two. I'm a mixture, with more of the narrator or author speaking and limited images. I also thought this influenced the types of books they read, with the first gravitating towards more description-heavy books and the second towards more dialogue-heavy books.

Anyway, this came up because I'm typing up someone's novels, who is the first type. Her dialogue is more awkward and she has lots of great description. My novel is more dialogue, and I have trouble adding description. (I felt so great when I wrote "Her green eyes narrowed.") What do you think of this theory? How does it apply to you and your writing?
