#40 - Pacing a TTRPG game can be tricky. Guy Milner, From The Burn After Running RPG Blog, and a regular host of the Unconventional GMs podcast gave me some great tips about how to keep the pace and run fantastic one-shot games. In our conversation Guy shares: Why one shot RPGs sessions are just as valid as long campaigns. His SWELL structure gives players the full emotional arc for their characters during one and done games. Heā€™s also going to giveĀ  you a TON of other Tabletop games you should go out and play.
