#RPGaDAY2021 Day 21

Well I’m sticking to the plan for some guilt free gaming today, as this post was written yesterday.

Here it comes, today’s hashtag thoughts…

I like things to be simple. It’s so easy when preparing for the next session to over complicate things. To spend lots of time on stuff that just doesn’t get used.

That’s why I became a practitioner of the Way of the Lazy DM as prescribed by Sly Flourish (click HERE for the YouTube playlist going through the steps).

Basically by using the 8 steps described by Sly Flourish to prepare for a session you are concentrating on the activities that will most benefit you whilst running that session. It’s not a ridged you must do all the steps, you do what works for you. It’s about giving yourself the confidence that you are prepared for that session.

There is a companion workbook full of useful tables and 10 generic locations that can be dropped into any campaign.

Mike aka Sly Flourish has even got the process down to 15 minutes! Yep if for whatever reason you hardly have no time at all to prep by using just 3 of the steps you can be ready.

What I like about this approach is the simplicity, and that it’s applicable to any RPG system. It really is a life changer.
