Why don't you start another series that doesn't require a lot of wolrdbuilding?

Eh, it might be a breath of fresh air to try something different.

@SailusGebel I thought about it but the story idea I have in mind is another adventure-type tale with more of a down-to-earth vibe. Smaller scale, but I tend to over plan.

@melchi My thoughts as well. The issue is time, as I don't have enough for two.

I remember the quality of your work was very good, shame that you aren't interested in writing a romcom.

Write short stories. Not long, 1-3 chapters. Feel refreshed by those plots. These can be sued to expand the world building of your book or just a simple refreshment before book 2

I enjoy RomComs very much as a reader but as a writer, I think I'd struggle. The story is certainly suited for it but I'm on the fence with it.

I planned it to follow a single-father adventurer and his three daughters who regularly try to get him hitched, but either things fall through, the women turn out to be terrible, or things just get in the way.

@Notadate Short stories are fun. I actually have written a number of them but I never publish any of them. I use them like concepts for stories and if I like the story line, I generally start thinking more in depth with it.

That folder is a graveyard, though. So many dead stories I'll never write.

I can say from experience that if you start another series, you will not finish one of them for a long time while you precariously work on the other like it's your baby.
