Hello, /lit/.
This is a question for people who've already written a book. Did you write an outline of the story before actually writing the book?
In my mind I have a clear picture, of the events, characters, themes. Should I just go ahead and write it or should I first write an outline?
It's your work, do what's best for you.
Read "Daily Rituals: How Artists Work" by Mason Currey. It'll give you an idea about how many approaches there are to writing and other pursuits. Hope it helps.
