After surfing through the web I discovered a heartwarming post about what keeps DMs going when the going gets tough. It made me reflect upon my own experiences as a DM and on the many reasons why I enjoy being a DM. I think being a Dungeon Master comes with a set of anxieties and fears that is separate from being a player, and understandably so, you are the eyes, ears, noses, and well... everything else of the players as they experience the world you've created. But, there are so many reasons why you should be a DM regardless, it is an experience wholly unique to the TTRPG landscape and improv storytelling.
So come with me and discover many reasons why you should be a DM if you are on the fence, nervous, or even if you've never thought about it.
