Talk to me, people.

For those writers who outline or do intensive pre-planning, will you tell me what your process is like?  

ETA:  If you're willing to share a sample outline, I'd love to see it. 

Answer anonymously if you want.  Answer even if we're not "friends."  Answer even if you just stumbled across this post and have no idea who I am.

You weren't rambly; I asked a question, and you answered it in a very helpful way. So thank you for taking the time to do that! I am not much of a planner when it comes to writing fiction. I have a general idea of where things are going, and as snippets of dialog, etc. pop into my head, I'll put them into a document. But most of the "real stuff" actually happens when I'm writing.

That said, I've been wondering if I can streamline the process, make it more efficient, and possibly create a better product, if I can force myself to be more of a planner/outliner. I thought it might be helpful to hear how some "planners" approach the process. If nothing else, I just like to talk shop. *g*

You are awesome for taking the time to give me such a thorough answer; thank you so much for that. *hugs*
