#RPGaDAY2018 - Day 25: Preparing for an extended campaign. Part 5 - Ongoing Preparations

This post concludes my five part answer of how I prepare for an extended campaign.

Part 1: The Goal and The Antagonist

Part 2: Notable Landmarks

Part 3: Player Integration

Part 4: Adventure Outline



Part 5: Ongoing Preparations

Preparation doesn't end when the campaign begins. Before and after every session, I take some time to go through what's happened so far, what the PCs actions were and how they impacted the world and the story. Did they like a certain NPC? Is there anything I should bring more (or less) of? I try to fine tune my campaign every session to ensure that it stays fresh and everyone stays engaged. 

I'll end this one on a short note, since there's many great guides out there that detail ways to prepare yourself for your gaming sessions (and I don't want to give away all my secrets yet), and also because I'm past due RPGaDay and there are many projects I'd like to work on. Perhaps I can cover this subject in better detail at a later time.
