10) D1F1 (castle King side)

In English the above is O-O....If it was on the Queen side, O-O-O

Your move in English would have been P-B3. Although you have 2 bishop files you can only legally move the pawn on the Queen side, so typing P-QB3 is unnecessary.

I understand what you are saying about visualizing the board. As one gets used to saying or writing the moves you can actually 'talk' a game for awhile before using a board.
