It's subject to change, of course, but without it, I can't write more than a page before I'm "stuck." And, I suppose, there's a touch of the prepper in me too. Oh,how I'd love to be a pantster but it's just not in the cards.

In answer to your question: In real life, I'm probably more a panster than a plotter or a prepper.

Usually, by the time a book is released, I'm well on my way writing the next one. Obsessing about how the book will do would stifle the writing of that next one, so I just do what I love, which is writing. The sales and reviews are "gravy" as far as I'm concerned. But then, I do like gravy.
