I wouldn't say wonderful. It's just how I can do it.
Ah, how you've explained how you read also explains how you learn languages. I am a very fast reader. I don't see individual words. I see the sentence or even paragraph as a whole. When it comes to anything relaying a story or event, whether fiction or non-fiction, I have a sort of visual movie in my head giving me an actual image of what's going on or what has happened (if an historical event).
I don't like hearing myself talk, so I would never make podfics of any of my own stories and probably wouldn't make podfics or audiobooks in general because of that.
I don't know what it is about the HP world that makes me write that like. I've managed a few very short ones, basically drabbles and double drabbles, or something no longer than about 1,000 words, but it's very rare and those aren't things I'd put on AO3 or anywhere. With the HP world, I guess I feel the need to provide more explanations of my interpretations of that world, whether it's the characters, environment/surroundings, or magic. Other fandoms make it a little easier. If I were to write Lord of the Rings fic I think I would face a similar problem owing to the complexity and detail of Middle Earth.
