Yes, it is fun working with the series concepts.<BR/><BR/>I can understand your feeling that there are so many different stories to explore. Even with that, I still find this particular story so compelling, and what would happen in successive volumes so compelling, that I am more than willing to stick with it if it turns into a series.<BR/><BR/>There is also the advantage of continuing work in a world already created, and getting to know certain characters better over successive volumes. Some writers prefer to write series for these reasons.<BR/><BR/>To each his own, or her own, as they say. I suppose the important thing is to have something to write that excites you, whatever it may be.<BR/><BR/>PS: I've visited your sites and am so impressed with the range and quality of your stories and story ideas. You are amazing!Adrian Swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531355795873701197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25637356.post-1174431661427222662007-03-20T19:01:00.000-05:002007-03-20T19:01:00.000-05:00Have fun with playing with a series. Personally, I...Have fun with playing with a series. <BR/><BR/>Personally, I have too many different ideas to stick to one set of characters for several books. Though in a way, some books are connected by a common setting in either the early (A Land Unconquered, Eagle of the Sea, Caledonia Defiant) or late (The Charioteer, Endangered Frontiers which both take place 406-415 AD) Roman Empire. And that Mediaeval Historical Fantasy looks like it might become two books.Gabriele Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205770868139083575noreply@blogger.com
