Prewriting, Drafting, and Revision
Everyone's thought process works a little bit differently. When formulating thoughts into sentences to describe what we feel or what we know, especially into longer and formal documents requires these steps.

When a group collaborates together, the amount of input about the subject matter can grow rapidly. People can contribute in many ways, and come from many angles.

I feel like most established writers have spent years on their craft, and sharpening this process over the course of years. I wouldn't consider myself an advanced writer or composer, but one of the first things I like to do when preparing to write is forming a compare and contrast of my narrative. How will readers percieve the text if I use this as the focal point? What if I switched it to this etc. I also like to draft as much material as I can and edit out the stuff that draws away from the point, followed by reading sentences out loud to find errors to revise.
