[QUOTE="Libramarian, post: 5910191, member: 6688858"] I used to be, then I ran a few games with very little preparation and gained confidence doing that. So I started doing that all the time, then had a few bad experiences where I was too tired or hungry and didn't really feel up for the game, and so the session bombed because I didn't have much to lean back on. Now that's basically how I look prep -- how much do I need to do to be able to run a solid session at a relatively low energy level. Which is still rather less than I originally started with. What I think would be a fantastic and doable product is an adventure module that is specifically designed to be run off the page with zero prep. Or maybe the prep would be just reading a few pages at the beginning. I have come to hate it when adventures say "read everything thoroughly before playing" because that usually takes as much time as just writing your own. [/QUOTE]
