As @neilhimself is fond of saying: In draft one, write down everything that happens in your story. In draft two, go back and make it look like you knew what you were doing all along.
Someone #writerfolk on Twitter were asking if some writers print out drafts of their work to edit in red pen.
I absolutely do.
Behold my:
BA thesis, MA thesis, a dozenish complete short stories, and the same number again of started and then abandoned short stories, academic essays and abstracts, a handful of short comic scripts, elwven published novels, two screenplays, three spec scripts for television, two unpublished novels, a smattering of poetry, and hundreds of articles. Also featured: multiple versions of some manuscripts, print it again to accommodate rewrites.
