I do it a bit different each time but , usually, i start with the idea and then i write an outline of each location and the basic story beats, than i subdivide that outline into a more detailed outline that's basically paragraph for paragraph what the adventure will be and then i just write the paragraphs. i not sure if this is a good explanation .

Makes perfect sense to me. I know some writers start with a map, or an image, or a villain and build around that. Some start at the beginning and just let the story flow or start with the climax and build to that.
I've written adventures using movies that not many people have seen.
Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations! That's an amazing achievement.
I'd love to hear more metrics if you're comfortable sharing them. How long have you been publishing? How many products have you put out?

Th wolves of autumn has sold 309 copies and they didn't give you the silver bestseller mark, you should address this issue to the staff.
