One aspect of being a DM that everyone knows intuitively but I've never seen overtly expressed is:
You never outrun your need for new ideas.
The ideas themselves can come from many sources, which is one of my most talked-about topics on my blog and YouTube channel.
To help other DMs, I share my ideas for encounters, adventures, and campaigns in a searchable web-based tool called The Vault. Check it out.

@veritastabletop In my current D&D campaign, the party is investigating the abbot of a local monastery who is allegedly seeking to become a vampire, as part of a 10-year cycle where all the abbots 'disappear' and get replaced. Does the plot go all the way to the top of the Order? It may, since they keep sending new abbots every decade without question.
Hmm.

Latest #DnD campaign for my daughter has her sea captain enrolling in a magic university to try to find a missing wizard by taking his classes to figure out what he was seeking. I’ve already had a jerky frat house use pranks to mess up her studying for the entrance exam. What other university life atmospherics could I add for colour? (Without putting her off post-secondary IRL, I suppose) #DnDKids #ttrpg #adventureideas
