Plot seems to be winning in the poll. I'm not surprised, really.
There are authors out there who write prose so clunky I just can't stand to read them...I have a physical reaction, like hearing nails on a chalkboard.
Oy. Yes, yes, yes.
I do the same thing with hearing dialogue in my head. A lot of things I write seem to start out in script form, but switch to prose a little ways in. I think it's because I'm just a control freak at heart, and I want to describe everything about a scene and not leave it up to directors, actors, etc. *g*
