But then people keep telling me they want things like settings, gestures, action, and some non-conversation centered plot.
More seriously, I've noticed there are two basic kinds of writers, those who process their stories as a series of images that need to be translated into words, and those who understand their stories as a series of words that need images. I'm one of the later.

LOL! I agree! If I had to publish one of my stories using only the first draft, it would be 80 to 90 percent dialogue. I'm definitely one of the latter. I think in terms of words, then I insert images and secondary actions.
