You and me both, except I don't have a major editing phase. My plot points arrive as I go along, and I've occasionally had major plot twists or reveals in the course of a paragraph, which I knew nothing about. And at least two of my favourite characters arrived that way too - where did you just come from?Each to their own, but I can't imagine writing in a way that the words don't (or at least aren't intended to) enhance the story. For me, that's half the fun of writing, and why I really enjoy the editing stage.
That said, I do very little in the way of plotting, and I'm sure plenty of writers consider that unimaginable.
