From what I've heard, that's what a lot of professional authors actually do: write the framework - dialogue and action - and then fill in the gaps.

I don't do that myself, as I'm sort of a paragraph-by-paragraph perfectionist (a "basher", as Kurt Vonnegut would say), but it seems to work really well for some people.
