New DMs: Don't write long pages of notes and dialogue you'll never need. Keep it short and sweet, a handful of words can do all the heavy lifting you need. #ttrpg #dnd5e #dnd #Dungeonsanddragons #dungeonmastertips

Prep the things that *you* need to prep. I struggled like heck with dialogue when I first started to DM. A list of NPC talking points/dialogue was essential prep. (but I agree a lot of people over-prepare, preparing to improvise is a better use of time generally)
