Interesting poll, Roger!
I voted for 'all of the above'. While I have scenes written out before I start posting (writing linearly is not one of my strong points, although I'm getting better at it) I try not to stray from the overall vision that I started out with. On the otherhand, I value the readers comments and will often change and incorporate ideas that I think will make the story better while not compromising the overall premise.
I believe my stories turn out better when I take each comment and suggestion carefully and try see how they weigh in scheme of things.
Sometimes, someone will comment on a particular point and it's like a lightbulb that goes off in my head. Now why didn't I think of that!! Duh!
