RE: Fog Over Blackpool - A Dungeons & Dragons Adventure
Again, your drawing skills are really good. Yes, overdoing it is helpful getting started as a module creator. Even better knowing it could stand as a home base.
Adding traps or other challenges based on the original owner or a mysterious intermediate might be as surprising as "improvements" made by the current owner.
I think overpreparing is a classic beginners mistake. But now that I've run a few adventures, I'm much more confident in my abilities as a DM. Now I just prepare the broad strokes of an adventure and plan out a few encounters. If there's a dungeon or important location I'll still map it out (but maybe not as nicely as these maps!)
