When starting a new fantasy novel, how much time do you take for world building? List every single race, write down their characteristics? Do you do a lot of research? E.g. if your story is set in the medieval ages, do you try to find out how life really was back then? Do you draw maps, invent new languages? Do you write down the characteristics of your main characters? Do your brainstorm? Write plans? Or just write, without any preparation?
