Are you a plotter or a pantser?

From Roni Loren:

Most pantsers I know are those writers that can bust out a book in a few weeks. They don't stop and edit as they go. They just freewheel and the words pour out of them. But then they know that at the end, they'll be left with a big editing and rewriting process. And they're okay with that.

Then the plotters I know are more the perfectionist type. They may edit as they go. They have a nice outline they are following and note cards stacked up on what happens next. They may take a lot longer to write a book but at the end, the edits are more minor because they've been tweaking the whole time.

Like Roni, I usually edit as I go (plotter) with no clear idea of where it is I'm going (pantser). This creates a lot of stress and uncertainty that I've never enjoyed but have long regarded as just a part of the process.

But maybe I'm just not doing it in a way that's best for me? I'm intrigued by Roni's current writing method, which includes drawing up a Save the Cat! beat sheet before she even begins writing.

So which are you?
