This sounds like a job for... [Scrivener](http://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener.php)! :D

Building on Kate's question:

- Create your outline.
- Write each section of your outline as a separate Scrivener document. Label them appropriately. (II/A/3, III/B/4/i)
- Once it's all on paper, you can rearrange the sections however you need.
- If you find yourself writing extra analyses, create new individual documents, and then they can be moved around at the end. You can add them to the existing outline structure, or append them in the middle. There's nothing wrong with an outline which goes I, II, IIa, III, IIIa, IIIb, etc. if it helps you keep track.
- Compile the document and read it in order several times as you go. This will help you to see if sections need to be reorganized.
