Next step is I input the combat encounters into DM's Familiar for quick access.Then, before each session I carefully go through the portion of the adventure I figure the party will get to during he session (I usually overestimate).  I read it several times, make some notes on how I want to play certain NPCs, what kind of PC reactions I expect and some contingency notes for when the party decides to leave the expected path of the adventure.I try to avoid having to pause to read through a part, but sometimes it is inevitable.  On the other hand if I think a pause will really disrupt things too much at that point I will usually wing it for a bit until I can get to a point where a short break is acceptable.</blockquote>
