I'm sure that there's some starving art student on a forum somewhere that would do it for you.Meh. It was worth a try.

Fluctuating from writing the story and the setting is usually what most people do when they "just write". It's not something I'd recommend though, especially if you plan or writing longer series, because it's easy to get off track.
I design the world before I write the story, — and I'm sure that I'm not the only one who've noticed this but — if you know your world, then writing the story will come so much more naturally, and it looks so much better when you reread it later on.
I personally don't like to start with the characters since it makes the worldbuilding much less free. I like to build a world and create characters that fit the world.
If you want to, I can provide you with some pdf guides from the cartographers guild which provide you a very good looking result in a relative short time.I'm sure that there's some starving art student on a forum somewhere that would do it for you.

Do Not Start World Building.
I suffer from world builder's disease. I have learned through many failed projects that world building is not the same as short stories or novels.
Start with a story seed. Work out all of your goals you want to accomplish with the story seed. (ex. themes, motifs, odd character quirks, etc.) And then set the story in a place that highlights those things present in the story seed.
What's world builder's disease?
World-building — like any project — has to be scheduled and systemized.World-building without end so that your story never gets written.
Take a certain bullet-point, like say religion.The problem I've found is I just can't seem to stay interested. I tried starting a bullet-point system with three main objectives, setting, characters, and plot. I maybe got half a page done, I just have no fun while doing this kinda thing. Just writing now, see where it goes from there.
