D&D General Where do you design your adventures?

[Charlaquin]

All of the above, minus hot tub cause I don’t have one, plus the shower.

 

[Charlaquin]

I prepare my adventures in my home office. I'm usually working on three projects at a time and I take a little bite off each one every day - write one blurb or encounter, design one monster, flesh out some chamber or whatever. When one adventure is complete, I add a new one to the pipeline. I find this works better than trying to rush through one adventure at a time and losing steam halfway through.

Smart. I should try this.

"Design" happens when I have unoccupied moments. Commuting, in the shower, whatever.

"Logistics" happens in front of a computer. Typing it up, checking stat block and copying in bits I need (or whole ones for non-D&D where they sell PDFs), etc.

This feels consistent with my "workflow."

I marked gaming room, bedroom, and in front of the computer, but that's really all the same room.

For me, the "porcelain throne" is a fine place to cogitate; in addition to living room, bedroom, "in front of a computer", and "in my head".

I often wonder how many good ideas I've forgotten because I think of them when I go to bed at night or I'm just out walking and so I don't write them down.

When that happens to me, I send myself an email from my phone - just a short sentence, or even a single word, to remind me of the idea when I have time to write it down properly.

At least the "at work" people are being honest.

Obviously you don't have a boring desk job.I find it's a great way to look busy when I'm not.

That's what I should do instead of relying on my memory. I have set up a Google doc for DnD ideas that I often add ideas for feats, subclasses, etc. I should do another for my campaign.
