Hello GMs of Lemmy!

I have been a GM myself for about 7 years or so, with more or less the same players in most of my games. What I have started to run into in the recent year or so, is that I have started to lose the interest in campaigns if the sessions get canceled often.

So my question is that how do most of you deal with this issue where you might start to lose interest in a campaign in the middle of it?

It may be worth it for you to see if your FLGS has a regular TTRPG night, or if there's any "nerd bars" nearby that offer something like that.

I second this.

I've only ever gone to a "nerd bar" once, but it was refreshing. We paid a GM associated with the bar to host a DCC one-shot, and it was great. As a perma-GM and usual host, it was great not to have to worry about either planning an adventure or snacks and drinks. It worked out for all of us.
