One joy about writing a series is that, as you go along, you obviously get to know more of how your world works, how its societies/peoples develop and so on. This knowledge helps you add depth to the stories but there is another advantage.
In my case, I've been able to envisage how local communities work, devise a Highway Code for the magical realm (huge fun to write!) and I hope at some point to produce other works. I can envisage a guide to magical law, Palace etiquette and that kind of thing.
I am thinking of developing these kind of works into future books (possibly ebooks) and see how things go but I do know now it is satisfying to invent things like this that can back up my Brenebourne novels and other stories.
I love The Discworld Companion for its details and I am pleased I can genuinely invent things for my own creations. I hope it is a sign of a very active imagination I can use to promote and back up my main works. Certainly it is good to have the option!
