And I find books with long stretches of description to be a struggle, which must be because I'm not a visual reader at all.

I mentioned this thread to a friend the other day and she was shocked that I don't visualize an image when I read. She didn't realize you could read any other way. However the same in reverse was true for me -- it never occurred to me that people would make a picture out of the written words, since not only do I not do, I really can't do it.
