On Developing Character, World, Plot.
I don't develop much before writing the first draft. I begin with an idea for the final act which, to me, is the most important. 1st draft is about exploring who's there and why.
2nd draft is about creating depth: fleshing out characters; building detail into the world; making sure the plot-points align. All while making sure the original story still zips along.
3rd draft is for polishing grammar turds and getting feedback
