Novels are an escape, and do exercise your imagination. I can't tell you how disappointing it sometimes is, my imagined image of characters/scenes is SOOO different than those of the movie producers.
Luckily for me, most of the novels I read are of the Sci-Fi genre, and the CGI budget necessary to bring them to life is self-limiting. So I'm content with my vision, as inspired by the words written.
I've tried a bit of writing myself. When I discuss the world I've created with those who have read it, they simply do not match up.
