I do know what you mean; I've been there too. I made the deliberate choice that in my latest piece, Muscle Memory, there was going to be very little physical character description that didn't matter to the story itself. Which means I haven't mentioned almost anyone's hair color and I definitely haven't described eye color. I know, though, that an editor for publication would likely ask for those elements added in, even though I'm doing it because this is the way I like to read and assume there are others who think like me.
