I do plan what to write, and I answer everything (I don't mean only dialogue), then I come with my own descriptions and actions too.

^ yep. i'm always like that. course if i can't come up with absolutely anything then i just end up stealing the name of the song i'm listening to.
i'm a beginning - middle - end person, but it isn't uncommon for me to know what i want at the end, so the beginning could actually be the most difficult for me to write xD
basically i just try to respond to the other character's dialogue, one after the other, and will fill around the dialogue of my character so that it isn't some wimpy short post with some dialogue lines.
Yeah, I pretty much do this. Make sure you cover everything your partner's character did, though. That's all I'm really concerned about.

HOW DO YOU WRITE/STRUCTURE YOUR POST? The worst of ways! First I read over the previous posts a couple of times. Then I begin writing out mine from beginning to end. Following that I try to determine if there is anything else I want to include. Lastly I read the finished product and revision the living daylight out of it. I adopted this way of doing things even though it takes an eternity to finish. I figure I would much rather take more time, than give those I am roleplaying with less than my best.

I can be somewhat careless with my posts. I write from beginning to end and I rarely check it unless I spy a very obvious error. Case and point being I copied a post for one of my characters and posted it for another because I hadn't checked which post I was copying. (Out of wordpad, I mean, cause I write everything there first. I don't trust Chrome or Firefox xD)

There's Lazarus for that. It's saved so many of my members (and myself). It even works when my laptop battery dies and I restart! There's also a version on chrome if you don't use FF.
