Ever since getting rid of cable, I've been getting sucked into television show marathons on Netflix. In addition to catching up on the most recent seasons of current shows, I've also been visiting some old favorites. After watching the first couple of seasons of Buffy, I started to remember just how much I enjoy a good "monster of the week" show, with an overarching season-long plot. Same thing with more recent shows like Supernatural.
Anyway, as I've been watching, I've started developing a story line in my head that I simply have to put onto paper. The general idea is a series made up of short books (80-100 pages.) In the serial style, each book has it's own conflict that gets resolved by the end of the book, with an overarching conflict that will be resolved at the end of the serial. It's not an original idea- lots of people are doing it these days. But it's new to me. Hopefully other people will enjoy the story I'm working on because I'm having a blast writing it. I'll keep you posted as it progresses.
