In my previous post, I talked about wanting to do something about the GM shortage that we have. And... I did a thing.
THE THING
In short, I'm running a six-session series on the absolute basics of GMing - specifically focusing on the more adminny, less creative aspect. Not all Game Masters are going to run their first, second, or even tenth game as a homebrew and there are some considerations that all of them would benefit to spend some time on. So that's what I'm going to try and facilitate.
The format is simple. Each session, I'll yammer for a maximum of 20 minutes on the subject I had prepared (with SLIDES! Oh! And HAND OUTS!). Then I'll open it up for discussion, questions, etc. until people are exhausted or two hours have passed.
Time zones being what they are, the current series will probably be easier for Africa, Europe and UK peeps to join, but if it works out, I might try to find a more friendly time for the Americas as well.
I'm very excited, a little nervous, but mostly determined to help do my part.
Let's see how this goes.
