Hey there!
I've been writing my first novel for a while now and i'm currently at the third draft. It's a space fantasy called "Destiny's Arrival" which will be a 7-novel series. But I haven't planned anything past the first book, I feel like I don't know the characters well enough yet and worst of all: For the first book in the series, I think it really falls short on being a self-contained-story, let alone setting up anything for the sequels. However, the silver lining is that I know there is a great story in there somewhere with great potential.
Wouldn't it be a better idea to write a different novel and go back to Destiny's Arrival at a later and better time? All while I start doing some actual worldbuilding and outlines for all the novels in the series?
What do you guys think?
(P.D English is not my first language. Sorry for any grammar mistakes)
