Across bookstores and the Web, book series have been immensely popular - across all genres. If you're wondering what makes a series of books so popular with both publishers and readers or desire to write a series of your own, listen to The Ins and Outs of Writing a Series.

Guest speaker and author Lauren Willig discusses what it is that makes series so attractive to both publishing houses and fans. Going element by element, she dissects what goes into different types of series, examining the various ways in which stories are linked together, with particular attention to the way series type differs by genre. She also discusses what you need to know to write an open-ended versus a close-ended series, and the pros and cons of each approach.

Among the different types of series she discusses are: family or friend-linked, thematically linked, geographically linked, single protagonist, changing story, or single protagonist, ongoing story. When you listen to this 92-minute online instructional video, you'll learn the definitions, pros and cons of each series type, and examples of popular book series from today's markets.

Once you've chosen the type of series you want to write, it's time to get into world-building and character development. Willig talks about ways in which you can turn your world into a place your readers want to return to again and again, whether it's an Alabama police station or a Regency ballroom. What is it that draws people in and keeps them there? Learn how to make your characters your readers' ongoing companions. Plus, she discusses character development for the long haul, creating characters who can grow and develop over time, and the art of managing a complex cast of ongoing characters and side characters.

Stylist and Durable
This is the second Michael Khors wallet that I bought online. You can match them up with all outfits or throw it right into your Michael Kors purse. I absolutely love this style because it’s big enough to hold your cards, cash, receipts and even your phone if needed, it’s an adorable wristlet. In my opinion I have not been disappointed. Jonust what I’ve wanted and what I’ve been looking for. Classy for work in matching bag or solo when going out.

The cutest!
Size: One Size, Color: Gold-tone Hardware/Mk Embossed Glitter/Crimson
Happy with my purchase! If you are looking for a small yet cute wallet this is for you! I put just the important items (ID, couple cards and cash) it’s great to throw into a sling bag and go! Doesn’t take up too much space yet is cute to carry! Got a compliment at the store by the cashier about the slight glitter hue it has!
