I've read several threads about trilogies, but I'm wondering about a series. I know several writers who have written a few books set in the same town, books about a group of sisters or brothers or even just several members of a family.
I've actually got an idea for a series. Each book would stand alone. It would be about Southern women who are what I call "teabags." They get stronger in hot water. My first novel, with minor reworking, could fit in with this series. My WIP in progress definately could. And, many of my other ideas for future WIPs would also fit in this category.
I guess what I'm asking is do publishers/agents like it when you have this kind of thing? Is it a good idea for a writer to have several novels which could fit under one theme in a series? Or is this something decided later, by a publisher?
