How To Write A Series – 02 – Why Write A Series?
Chances are, you already have a good idea if you want to write a series or not.
But let’s say you don’t.
Let’s say you have a bright, shiny idea for a story, but no idea how BIG this idea is — is this an idea that can last a series, or is it the right size for a book, or is really just a short story?
Ideas stretch. So this is kinda a trick question.
It’s less about the idea itself and more about your enthusiasm. I can think of a lot of good ideas for series that I know would bore me after one or two chapters, never mind books or episodes.
