I’ve been thinking a lot lately about DMing. I’ve realized, over recent weeks, that my DMing needed a jump start. No matter how many other blogs I read, no matter how many message boards I posted to, I was still feeling a little dry.
That is, until it occurred to me: Dungeon Mastering isn’t all that different from a lot of things in life. There are some basic tenents, principles, habits that effective people use to accomplish their goals. So, I put this little article together.
I’ve got it posted above my desk. Hopefully, it will help you as much reading it as it has helped me in writing it.
