Synopsis

Series fiction has exploded in popularity with the rise of digital publishing, drawing attention from readers and institutions alike.

Yet writing series fiction isn't always easy-developing characters and stories capable of iterate through multiple volumes while still engaging readers is a challenge for any author, and our understanding of how series fiction works is still couched in terminology associated with stand-alone titles.

Peter M. Ball began researching the poetics of series fiction after writing a sequel and discovering all his storytelling instincts no longer applied. This book is the culmination of culmination of several years of research into why series fiction is different to writing a stand-alone book, and how those differences can be used to generate poetic effects.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Dr. Peter M. Ball is an author, publisher, and RPG gamer whose love of speculative fiction emerged after exposure to The Hobbit, Star Wars, David Lynch's Dune, and far too many games of Dungeons and Dragons before the age of 7. He's spent the bulk of his life working as a creative writing tutor, with brief stints as a performance poet, gaming convention organizer, online content developer, non-profit arts manager, GenreCon convener, and d20 RPG publisher. He holds a PhD in writing from the University of Queensland. He's the author of the Miriam Aster series and the Keith Murphy Urban Fantasy Thrillers, three short story collections, and more stories, articles, poems, and RPG material than he'd care to count. He's the brain-in-charge at Brain Jar Press, publishes his own work through the GenrePunk Books imprint, and resides in Brisbane, Australia, with his partner and two cats.Peter can be found online at: www.petermball.com
