So you want to write a multi-part fantasy series? How do you get started? We hear stories about ideas coming to authors while they're on a train or walking their dog, and we imagine it's fully formed. As authors, we know that's not how it works.

In this episode, host Terry Bartley talks to Ryan Gebhart. Ryan wrote the Jewel of Life series that just released the seventh and final novel in the series, Shattered Light. So he's the perfect person to talk to about how to develop and wrap up a series.

They talk about planning vs. pantsing, creating characters, and what it is like to follow a protagonist through so many books.
