Well, GMing guides are a thing. I wouldn't overlook Robin's Laws of Good Game Mastering, for example.

Thank you. I've been a GM for 42 years and a GURPS GM for 35 years, but this is the first time I've given advice longer than a 'zine article, so it's good to hear that it's of some value!

The Basic Set has surprisingly solid advice for GMs. The biggest problem is finding it in almost 600 pages of content.
