Worldbuilding Weekend Prompt #44 - People, Places or Plot; Which Comes First ?
Welcome to the next in an ongoing series of writing prompts in the Worldbuilding community !
I'm aiming to post one of these each Sunday. They aren't a replacement for the excellent daily prompts from

The prompt this week is - People, Places or Plot; Which Comes First ?
For a change I thought I'd write more of a "technical" prompt. Mostly because it might help me improve my own writing technique by seeing some different approaches. The question is whether you work out the people, plot or places first when you're constructing a world or story. I'm especially interested to see whether it varies by genre and type of worldbuilding (e.g. for RPG's, creative writing, videogames etc).
Just to add a bit of spice to things, the two entries I most like (and are linked in comments to this post, so I can find them !) that are posted by midnight (GMT) next Saturday will each get a prize of one Hive SBI.
This link will take you to the FAQ where you can read more about Hive SBI - it's a project I thoroughly support because it gives both the donor and winner a steady trickle of passive income paid out in the form of upvotes on posts.
