		<description><![CDATA[Back in 2004-5, I ran a D&#038;D campaign for my friends back in Michigan that only met once a month. To make up for having fewer sessions, we played long games: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with some wiggle room on the back end to run over. There was at least one session where we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I suspect every GM has an idea on the back burner for a campaign that they&#8217;d love to try sometime, but never seem to get around to. Mine is a hybrid MechWarrior/BattleTech game where the PCs are all &#8216;mech pilots (and the RPG stuff is handled with a different system than MechWarrior, which looks awful), [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are lots of ways to get inspired to run your next game. For me it nearly always starts with a flash of inspiration &#8212; a partially-formed idea pops into my head, and I think &#8220;I have to run that.&#8221; But that&#8217;s far from the only way to get things rolling. Here&#8217;s a short list [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thinking about GMing in the car (you know you do it too), it hit me just how clueless I was for the first several years. Oh, I figured plenty of stuff out on my own, and I developed aspects of my GMing style that persist today, but by and large I had no idea what [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This idea isn&#8217;t fully formed yet, but lately I&#8217;ve been doing some thinking about GMing milestones. The thing that&#8217;s most interesting to me is that I see quite a few that cross genre, system and stylistic boundaries, and therefore apply to all GMs. So what&#8217;s a GMing milestone? Parts of one of Dictionary.com&#8216;s definitions fit [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The &#8220;standard&#8221; model of the neverending campaign is a lot less standard these days &#8212; it&#8217;s enviable, but gets harder and harder to pull off the older you get. Multiply moving, having kids and other responsibilities by the number of players in your group, and it quickly gets tough to keep a game running for [...]]]></description>

I say &#8220;neither&#8221; because I got my start as a GM by running very loose storytelling sessions that had very little connection [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here on TT, we&#8217;ve asked how you learned to GM, and how GMs should learn the ropes. We&#8217;ve discussed how TT readers got started as GMs and what GMs actually do. We&#8217;ve even covered GMing by default (one reason to GM) &#8212; but we&#8217;ve never asked this particular big question: Why do you GM? &#8220;Because [...]]]></description>
