- Book 3 of 7: Write Novels That Sell
How do you write a book series readers binge? Build the foundation before you write Book 1.
Do you dream of writing a series? Readers want novels that are the same but different, and when they find a series they love, they want more. Getting readers to fall in love with your series comes down to one thing: a well-structured series.
Secrets to Writing a Series is a step-by-step guide to planning and writing a fiction series in any genre. It's Book 3 in the Write Novels That Sell series by K. Stanley, founder and CEO of Fictionary, and L. Cooke, Fictionary Certified StoryCoach Editor. Whether you're a discovery writer or you love an in-depth outline, we'll show you how to set up, outline, and write your series.
You'll learn:
- The difference between a closed series and an open series, and how to choose
- How to find the uniting factor that holds your series together
- How to outline a series story arc, or story arc patterns that repeat across novels
- How to set up and resolve each novel so readers reach for the next one
- How to handle backstory, subplots, POV characters, and titles across a series
- How to test your structure with the Series Structure Test
You'll create:
- Skeleton blurbs for your series and at least three novels in it
- Story arc patterns that unite your novels
- Your protagonist and POV strategy
- A series vault you'll use to write every novel in your series
We break down bestselling series, including The Hunger Games, Divergent, Bridgerton, Stephanie Plum, and Agatha Raisin.
"The clear, step-by-step approach of Secrets to Writing a Series will take you from idea to epic, regardless of series length." -Carol Fisher Saller, editor and author
Like every book in the Write Novels That Sell series, we give you the theory-the why behind our recommendations-and actionable advice you can use right away.
Turn your series dream into novels readers can't put down.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
