Anyone ever link their stories?

[JaxRhapsody]

All the stories I write are all linked in that they all take place in the same city, just in different times or alternate realities. There are some cameos that elude in to what happens after rhe story they were one of the main characters in. At some point I will be starting a new blog on blogspot for them all. They are alk stories of Velocity, the ciyy losely based on my hometown. The idea came from my first attempt to write a real story called Street Rhapsody that I syarted back in high school(on hiatus).

The stories are unrelated but all the characters live in the same city, I am still comprising time lines and the sort which will all be on my new blog. I even have artwork for some of the cars mentioned in my stories. Im just curious. And sorry for the typos, editing is a bitch on my cell phone.

Oh yes. My hockey stories often share characters and locations (although of course not the two currently posted ). And I like to drop in little things like that. Makes it fun for me.

For me the challenge is difference. I love to experiment. Some times it works- other times it doesn't. I have written a long series but within it there was a lot of new things. I become impatient with repetition. For me life moves on.

I have a series that wasn't meant to be a series here.

All the character have the same names, a few take place in the same city or revolve around similar plots, yet each is different. But there is once central theme in all of them.

Most of my short stories take place within one of mmm... maybe three 'universes' each with its own sense of place and cast of characters. One is more realistic than the others and therefore less fun to write in!

Most of mine are set in Seattle (one way or another), and many of them link or have shared characters.

I have planned on several stories or series' taking place in or near the same small midwest town, but so far just one series, Plus an alternate universe story does.

I have several in the planning/idea stage that will be there. But haven't gotten around to them. There is another story in a larger city, and again, I plan to use that city as the setting for future stories, with cameos of some characters.

Cameos and references of main and minor characters are all possible and planned in future stories, but whether I actually complete any more is up in the air.

Just about all of my stories, here and for sale take place in RI. It makes it easy for me to come up with names of streets and places and kind of fun to do it in general.

Kinda reminds me of back to the future.

One reason I do this is to get a better grasp of the city the characters are in, instead of a lot of explaining this or that and descriptions. Once my blog(now linked in my sig) is actually started all that will be there. The areas of the city frequented are different from character to character and location as well for those who cross the same neighborhoods. There are three stories I stopped writing completely and may go back to at some point. If some one reads them all, especially if they have been in Louisville for any amount of time can relate or picture the city. There are also places long past that still exist such as FYE's Suncoast. There will never be a Fourth st. Live. /The hardest part is ne neighborhood and street paradies. I try not to recycle names and have a compiled list of all the names used, to be used, plots, character bios, even if some of it such as breast size never make it in, or the car they drive, for my ease of writing.

All of it will come together in time, because not all them can be posted on Lit or other sites and some sites are just fustratiing like writing.com, so the ones that I don't want to publish will be free to read and my hopefully decent fan base can really get in to them. Some of them could be carried enough to publish. Once what I have is done, I'm working on a sort of finalizing story called ultimate epilogue that pretty much ends most of the current stories I'm writing.,

I didn't even write mine as a series, it's just when I went back a took a look when I was publishing them at Smashwords they were all about the same guy with the same people revolving around him mostly in the same city...except for that last one. It was then I decided to put them together as a series. Funny how thing happen.

New author here so be gentle. Or not.

I've got a series in the works. Each story stands along but there's a story arc for the series. Obviously the main characters are the same but I'm introducing new ones that will spin off into their own stories. From there I can introduce new characters, etc.

I like character development in my stories and the best way for me to do that is to spread them over several stories. That way I can put them in different situations.

That can be as much a fun read and write. I have the same characters popping up here and there in my stories as well.

 

[Ironiclaconic]

Yeah, almost all mine have at least one character in common with another.

 

[RejectReality]

The bulk of my work as Dark is all set in the same world. Most of them revolve around the same large cast of characters, with different people taking center stage in various stories.

I linked "Ghost of a Chance" and "R.I.P." as Les on a lark, but nothing else that isn't part of a series is linked. Nothing as RR is linked.
