How do you write a book series that keeps readers coming back for more? This was the subject of a recent Golden Crown Literary Society panel, which involved myself, Melissa Brayden, KC Luck, Ann McMan, Jae, and moderator Karin Kallmaker.
We touched on topics such as:
- What are the different types of series?
- What makes writing a series different from writing a standalone?
- What are the benefits and challenges of writing a series?
- Are series the secret weapon for making a living as a writer?
I also made a bunch of excellent faces, some of which can be seen in this Instagram post.
Watch a recording of the panel below, or on the GCLS YouTube channel.
What’s your favorite book series, and what makes it engaging to you as a reader?
