Twitter Questions:

@DigitalDraco: How long do you spend prepping for your games and how long do your games last?

@DnDPrincessAria: How do you deal with parties without healers?

@DigitalDraco: What do you do if you have very little or nothing planned? Do you call the game or do you improvise? If you improvise, then what are some tips or tricks to help pull that off well?
