yes please! more standalones!
I love a good series, but yes the world needs more standalones! Uprooted is a really great one and I'm sure Spinning Silver will be as well :)
Fantasy does desperately need a good infusion of stand alone novels.
That being said, I am also a fan of that model where a writer writes a trilogy or a whole series over multiple years if they need and doesn't release the first book until the whole thing is done.
Either is preferable to series that never end for whatever reason.
Yes, thank you thank you for the standalones!!
You can have stand-alone books and also have sequels or prequels to them, if you’re clever enough...
I love your stand alones and am excited about your new magic school series-thank you so much for your writing <3
I am always happy when I find a good standalone novel. Many fantasy series end up long and daunting, and I rarely start them as I know it will take me so long to finish. With a standalone, I know I can immerse myself AND know the end of the story before my attention is distracted by another book (I tend to read several at a time, depending on my mood). But everything has its exceptions of course, and if by some chance a sequel to Uprooted would sprout (pardon the pun) from your imagination... I'd be all over it in a flash.
