Where I had a series of really, really excellent campaigns, and I got it into my head that everything I did needed to be good enough to bronze for the ages. Once I started thinking this way, it stifled my creativity. It wasn't until I gave myself permission to just prepare, no matter how mediocre or uninspired the stuff seemed, that I started getting creative again. Also, keep in mind, your players probably won't really notice. In my experience, the stuff that I thought of as mediocre, the players really liked. In fact, once I allowed myself to be a little less original with my adventures, I think the players had more fun, because I was more focused on what worked game-wise than on what made me feel proud of my creativity. So my advice. Just prepare material, don't worry about how original or cool it seems. You just need to get back into a flow. Once your not thinking so much about it anymore, inspiration will come.</blockquote>
